My family has pastured grass-fed beef on our farm for several decades.  It's not really a serious business.  We mostly just do it in order to maintain the family farm.  But after watching this TED Talk, I'm thinking maybe we should expand.  I'm curious whether there is any interest in "straight from the rancher" beef for Bitcoins.  Depending on the response, perhaps we can make it happen.

The first caveat is that it would have to be limited to the US only.  So I'm sure that eliminates half of you.

But the idea I'm considering is that you can purchase a whole cow at a time.  You can buy a calf, and the price would include pasture until it reaches market weight.  It would be your cow.  You can take delivery at any time.  Or once it's mature, we send it to the butcher, and have it processed and shipped to you at cost.

This is good, quality beef.  You get a whole cow.  So there's no chance of getting bad cuts, or a bunch of hamburger like sometimes happens when buying parts of a cow.  You tell the butcher how you want it cut.  Think of it as an investment in healthy eating.

Would there be any interest in this among the Bitcoin community?
