SALONA — You won’t find too many products at Stoltzfus Butcher Shop that don’t have a local connection.

Since Mark Stoltzfus first opened his butcher shop in 1998, he’s always prided himself on his community oriented business model.

The business, which slowly grew until he opened his new facility in 2017 along East End Mountain Road, offers a wide range of service and products.

“Our number one focus is local. Our beef is local, we have milk and other dairy products from local farms. Everything that comes through here that’s smoked is made here,” Mark said.

From the chocolate covered pretzels, canned goods, honey, maple syrup and more — including the popular potato chips — there’s typically a local connection.
