Grass-fed, Pasture Raised, No Added Hormones, Grass-Finished, Grain-Finished, Free Range, Natural. . . Have you ever wondered what all those terms mean? Who verifies these label claims? Does the meat from animals that you raise qualify for these claims?
Yadkin County 4-H is hosting a Meat Labeling for Producers webinar on December 6th from 6:30- 8pm.
This webinar will have representatives from A Greener World, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (NCDA&CS), and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) who will briefly explain these claims. They will then explain the certification process and requirements.
