PIG HEAVEN IN A BOX

If you could shrink-wrap little bits of heaven and put them in a bag, these crop shares are exactly what you would get. Tim Fischer, one of Minnesota’s top pork farmers, has cherry-picked these four assortments for your dinner table. If you meet him, don’t be afraid to give him a big smooch. We do – everytime he rings the doorbell at the back of the store.
