ACA HOSTS bama beef directory, Connecting Consumers With Producers

In response to a growing number of people searching for local and online meat sales, the Alabama Cattlemen's Association (ACA) is creating a digital platform to directly connect consumers looking to purchase beef with those who produce it. The new portal will be available to the public this summer and will allow beef producers to share their contact information, including a website and social media platforms. The listing is free to Alabama beef producers and will be marketed to consumers searching for direct sale and online beef sources.

ACA is accepting submissions to be included in the directory. Alabama beef producers looking to add their operation to the listing can do so by completing the form below.
