As Memorial Day approaches this weekend, we reflect on those who died for our country’s hard-won freedom. That is what the holiday is about, first and foremost. A nice complement to this most revered day is a gathering with friends and family to share memories of loved ones who have served, enjoy the beautiful weather and eat great food. The Butcher Shop is proud to honor all who have fallen in battle, an honor marked by Memorial Day this weekend. It also marks the start of family barbecues for the summer, so head on over to get something for the grill.
