🍅 TOMATO SEASON IS BLOOMING… and these beauties are ready to get saucy. 🍅

Salsa. Ketchup. Canners. Or slice ’em thick for a good ol’ BLT.

And around here, the “B” doesn’t have to be boring:

🥓 Beef bacon
🦆 Duck bacon
🐗 Boar bacon
🐖 And regular bacon… for the traditional folks 😂

🍅 ½-bushel of tomatoes — $18
We also have discounted tomatoes that may not win a beauty contest, but they’re perfect for canning!

Come load up before everyone starts pretending they invented homemade salsa. 😏

That’s right — we’ve got the garden AND the meat counter covered. Grab some tomatoes, snag some lettuce, load up on deli ham and go home and make yourself one hell of a sammich. 🥪😂
