When we started the Vermont Butcher Shop in 2014, our objective was—and remains—simple: To deliver the best to you, and do so with exemplary personal service.

We are Vermont’s only whole animal butcher. What does that mean? Whole animal butchery is cutting from the whole carcass rather than outsourcing packed and boxed cuts. We buy the entire animal and cut it up according to the seasonal demands of our customers.

And we are very serious about the farms we partner with. We always ensure they share our commitment to the working landscape, to animal health, and to quality. We know that treating the animals, the environment, and our customers with respect creates a better product, a better experience for all.

We are passionate about our craft. Culinary butchery is as much an art as it is a critical part of the farm to table movement. Every member of our staff is trained in house so that you get the most out of your purchase. Every cut of meat you select comes with a completely transparent story.

Next time you find yourself staring at the shelves of styrofoam in your grocery store, know that there is a better option. We’re here to ensure that you know where your food comes from and guarantee that you’ll be able to see and taste the difference.
