Meet Althea our Berkshire Pig farmer from Vermont!

Althea raises authentic and certified Berkshire pork on her picturesque farm in Bridport Vermont. On one side you can view the Adirondacks and on the other you see the Green Mountains.  All of her pigs lead a quiet happy life and are pasture raised with each other grazing grass and legume pasture in the Champlain Valley.  Her Berkshire and Heritage breed Tamworth pigs produce the best pork you will ever taste! Their grass/hay diet is supplemented with whey from local cheese makers, all natural grains, our own produce, apples, pumpkins and nuts in season.

She stopped by today to say hi and we just had to introduce you! We just got a fresh new shipment of Berkshire that our butchers are breaking down for you today!

Just Arrived In House- 3 new Grass Fed Angus Steer from Maine-Come get it before its gone!

Ray Buck, the owner of Archer Angus in Chesterville Maine, drove down straight from Maine with 3 heads. They are available now in our retail stores and on the menus of the finest chefs in Boston! These Angus are fed Alfalfa grasses and left to forage and graze in the fields.

Grass Fed beef isn’t graded by the USDA. So the only way to really understand the quality is to understand the marbling and to taste it. This is the finest and most consistent year round grass fed beef we have found in New England (and we have tried a LOT).

We invite you to come and check out the sirloin, tenderloins, chucks, and burgers! We get our next big shipment right before Memorial Day-just in time for the grill!
