Glad we made - now when do I get to learn how to hack up meat? :)
I don't believe I ever received my contribution tier reward... hopefully someone will see this, I'm not sure how else to get in contact.

I appreciate any kind of local food movement. I've been developing a natural beef program in Southwest Montana for the past couple of years. It's the future of the cattle industry.
Good luck with your shop.

Congratulations, Vadim! And thank you again for being such an ally in taking care of Koda. You are a prince among men. Even though I'm not in Boston, please keep me on your mailing list. I'll either come or send people.
What an amazing video. You are truly an artist. Thank you.
Closer to you goal by the moment. We are so excited that you are well on your way. Keep this going. Love Mom an Dad
Yeah! I want lamb... now.
Dude: I can't believe you didn't tell me about this and I had to hear about it through the Globe>Somerville the day after you kickstarter party!!
Best of luck with this, you fully have my support. Will be donating as soon as I get home from work.
Good luck to you Vadim. Nose to Tail cooking should more of a priority and a butcher shop like yours would do the whole city good. - Travis & Quin
Great demo at the Bacon & Beer fest today. Look forward to some tasty cuts from your shop.
Good luck. Very much looking forward to meeting you and patronizing your establishment.
Best of Luck Buddy.
Give me meat, Vadimka! MEEEAT!
I hope you succeed in this. I've been looking for quality Pork (and Meat) in the Somerville area from locally raised, grass fed sources. Not easy to find!
I contributed to this project because I truly believe in the idea. I wish you the best of luck.
OK here is the thing---- You are so talented. We are so excited about your new venture. You can make a difference in the BUTCHING FOOD WORLD. We love you VADIM. XX Mom & Dad
I really appreciated your attention to detail and excellent customer service when you were working at Savenor's, Vadim. My family and I are so excited to support you in this venture.
Thank you for helping to make meat a more responsible choice. My family is treating an autoimmune disorder with diet, and we find that meat is important in our nutrition and health. I hope to be a customer soon.
Hi Vadim,
I'm really excited to be a part of your project! I definitely agree that we should be getting our meat from local sources.
Best of luck to you!

Good luck, Vadim. You deserve this.
Hi Vadim,
Good luck with this project. I'm doing a similar project in Montana with beef. We need to get people closer to their food.
Take care,
Sam
Best of luck on this!
Good luck V-bop!
I think I speak for all meat fans in Inman when I say: Our tastebuds are a-twitter with the knowledge you will spring onto them. Good luck!
Vadim, Wonderful project. Beautiful video. Wishing you much success!
Great idea, great guy. Mary and I wish you the best of luck with this!
Congrats! Much success to you, Vadim.
This is an awesome, awesome idea. Boston is sorely lacking in this area -- I'll do whatever I can to see that it comes to fruition. I very much look forward to following this project.
It's going to be so great to have a trusted, talented and devoted butcher in our city. Being committed to local/sustainable farmers is something that is incredibly important in buying meat and I am proud to help out and spread the word! Best of luck Vadim and to everyone helping him out on this venture!
We know the quality of meat and other products will stand up to your standards
Vadim. We know the sausage making will include our family recipe for basic - Ukranian Kolbasai -a family favorite. love ya Mom and Dad.
