Now begins the shifting of summer into fall. Let’s not put the cart before the horse, though! Time passes swiftly enough without our anticipation. We have grill-ables galore like lamburgers, sheepdogs, pork chorizo and Italian links, and smokable sensations like lamb shanks, pork butt roast and hocks. Don’t hibernate yet
All our goods are available for pre-order online at http://ThePasturage.com/order/ where you’ll see all that we have in stock.
Tootles!
