Maybe you can get in on some kind of hunting trip? I'm not suggesting taking up hunting, because it would be a counter-productive investment (even if the food distribution network collapses tomorrow, you'd be better off hunting people and their food than primary sources of food). But maybe there are 'chartered hunts' or something? (You know, as FL has chartered fishing trips where the vessel, tackle, food, and fishing licenses are all covered only with hunting.)
Also, as I understand hunting (whether fish, fowl, or fauna) to work, if at least someone gets some meat, at least a portion of it is usually divided up with the non-productive members of the party. So as part of a group your chance of getting venison increases. (But then again, maybe that's just some kind of "gentleman rule" I have been repeatedly exposed to and so now take as granted.)
