Comings and Goings: Butcher Shop to Saugatuck

The Saugatuck Craft Butcher shop will open at 575 Riverside Ave. at the new Saugatuck Center in mid- September, according to owner, Ryan Fibiger, a resident of Bridgeport’s Black Rock section. Fibiger said that the 900 square feet shop – located next to Downunder, the new kayak, surf and paddle board shop – will sell meats from animals raised on local farms located within 100 miles of Westport and the slaughter houses are located in nearby Pine Plains, N.Y., Bristol and New Milford, Conn.  Fibiger said he spent the past year working at Fleisher’s Grass and Organic Meats shop in Kingston, N.Y. and that its owner will serve as a consultant.
