About Book
The butcher has reemerged in American culture as an essential guide in avoiding the evils of industrial meat which not only tastes bad, but is also bad for one’s health and for the environment. Joshua and Jessica Applestone, a former vegan and vegetarian, are trailblazers in this arena. They owned Fleisher’s, an old-school butcher shop with a modern-day mission sourcing and selling only grass-fed and organic meat. The Applestones’ return to the nearly lost tradition of the buying and nose-to-tail carving of whole animals all humanely raised close to their shop in New York’s Hudson Valley—has helped to make them rising stars in the food world.
