Limited Holiday Release: Garzeno-Style Salametti

We’re excited to bring back our Garzeno-Style Salametti for a very limited holiday release, available online and at our farmers markets while supplies last. This traditional Italian salametti is made with a 60/40 blend of pork and beef and dried for 21 days.

Slice it thin and enjoy with crackers and cheese, add it to a holiday board, or savor it on its own. A longtime family favorite, this batch has a subtle hint of holiday spices layered with red wine, garlic, and sea salt—rich, seasonal flavors perfect for entertaining or gifting.

Find it at all of our farmers markets this holiday season, or order online —the last day to order online is 12/14.

We are deeply honored to receive the Leopold Conservation Award from the Sand County Foundation, an organization whose tireless work embodies the conservation ethic that has guided our stewardship at Stemple Creek Ranch for the past two decades.

We have been privileged to work this land and connect directly with our community, always striving to leave it healthier than we found it. The Sand County Foundation’s commitment to recognizing and supporting landowners who balance productivity with environmental stewardship inspires us daily. Their work amplifies Aldo Leopold’s vision that conservation is not just about preserving nature, but about fostering a respectful, reciprocal relationship between people and the land.

We are grateful to stand among the ranchers and farmers they celebrate, many of them our friends and neighbors, who prove that agriculture and conservation can thrive together. This award reminds us that our work is part of a larger movement, and we are proud to contribute to the legacy the Sand County Foundation continues to build across the country.

- Lisa and Loren Poncia
