You may not be a professional meat cutter, but maintaining a good quality knife is essential for many reasons. Anyone who uses knives over an extended period knows the frustration of trying to use blunt, dull knives. First of all, be sure to keep an eye on our Facebook page because Rusty from Minnesota Knife Sharpening stops by Hagberg’s fairly regularly to give our customer’s knives an edge. In the meantime, here are a few “tips” of the trade to help you keep your knives cleanly cutting.

At Hagberg’s we never stop searching for the best sources of meats, produce, dairy, and groceries. Fortunately, we don’t have to look far. Our business takes pride in sourcing from local purveyors whenever possible. We’ve developed great relationships with many local producers who help us keep our commitment to providing our customers with quality and selection you just can’t find at the chain stores. But it goes beyond quality products. As a small business, we know how important it is to support our local economies where we live, shop, and work.

Newsflash! The Minnesota State Fair has been canceled due to you-know-what! Okay, we know, it’s not new news, but as the date of the annual food fest draws nearer, were here to remind you, you can still enjoy a lot of your favorite fair flavors at home. Here’s a couple of our favorites – deep-fried, of course.
