Local Food Field Trip: Fauquier’s Finest Country Butcher Shop

Here at the Local Food Project, we love our veggies…but we also appreciate and support our farming neighbors who are committed to producing high-quality meats. Airlie Center’s Executive Chef Jeff Witte is a big fan of local foods of all kinds and he sources many ingredients for the Airlie’s renowned buffet from local producers. We rode along with him to Fauquier’s Finest Country Butcher Shop in Bealton to pick up an order of grass-fed beef from Croftburn Farm (Culpeper, VA). This is a great time of year to head out into the community and see the local food web in action!
