In an article in the Caledon Enterprise celebrating 20 years in business Howard said of his business:
“The generations coming up behind ours, the 25- to 45-year-olds, I find they’re more concerned about the quality than the price of everything so it fits right into our footprint because all the meat we sell is from farms that treat the animals humanely — no hormones, steroids or antibiotics.”
Howard and Ann go out of there way to purchase products that are as local as possible and that come from organizations that follow sustainable farming
Howard the Butcher supports many local causes (Orangeville Hospital, Caledon Seniors and Caledon Community Services)
