So I'd check with grain silos, cold storage facilities, apple/fruit processors canneries, or any other sort of food handling company and see what they have. You cannot legally feed any food that is post-consumer, or that contains meat, without cooking it first in washington state; but any sort of fruits or vegetables are fine. Dairy, cheese, that sort of stuff too. Bread. <br /><br />We get this stuff from cold storage facilities in and around the port of seattle; the food gets shipped in and out via the port, and they always mess some of it up every year, so we get a fair bit for the cost of hauling. And the pigs like the variety. <br /><br />Bruce Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995706761794063165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-49477567780490778982015-09-16T08:24:11.168-07:002015-09-16T08:24:11.168-07:00Out of curiosity, how did you get the arrangements...Out of curiosity, how did you get the arrangements in place to receive this sort of stuff? I'm raising pigs up north of Spokane and would love to offset some of my feed costs with this kind of waste...Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282806208608083976noreply@blogger.com
