I am not sure if i am posting in the correct place but can anyone tell me where I can buy hormone free meat at source? I can travel anywhere in London and the southeast.

    As growth hormones are banned in the EU, you should be able to buy it anywhere. Do you particularly want to buy direct from the farmer?

    Farmers markets might be a good place to start. You will be able to talk to the farmers on the stalls and find out how their meat is produced. Here's one example - https://www.sussexway.co.uk/farmers_markets_sussex_surrey_london.html

    I don't know them personally but they are Soil Association certified so I'm sure the meat will be good.

    I thought organic meat meant the animal had not been fed hormone? If not, what is organic meat?
