VPR Cafe: For Meat Lovers Only

EMILY McMANAMY/FREE PRESS

Sunday, November 3, 2013, 10:45am  A Burlington area restaurant group launched a commissary this year to process meat from local farms.  The Guild Commissary has provided a steady market for local farms and made it possible for them to grow.  Initially, the meat processing center served The Farmhouse Group Restaurants.  But now, consumers can buy local meat beef, pork, chicken and deli meets at Guild Fine Meats in downtown Burlington.

Sally Pollak, who writes for the Savorvore Section of the Burlington Free Press, talks about this new localvore initiative.  You read Sally's story and learn more.

The VPR Cafe is produced in collaboration with the Free Press and is made possible on VPR by J.K. Adams in Dorset Vermont and TheKitchenStoreOnline.com,Vermont made wood products for the kitchen and home.

Franny was VPR's Director of Programming & Production.
Ric was a producer for Vermont Edition and host of the VPR Cafe.
