Inspired by Italy, made in Vermont…

Peter Roscini Colman, the founder/visionary of Vermont Salumi, grew up on Vermont’s Cate Farm, an organic food producer, and cherished summers spent with his babbo’s family in Umbria, Italy.

There, he used to "warm up" for lunch at his grandparents' house by eating prosciutto— a lot of prosciutto.

His passion for the delicacy was so strong that he was inspired to learn how to make it himself.

Pete learned the methods, techniques, and centuries-old traditions of crafting salumi from the Norcini, esteemed butchers of Umbria, under the guidance of his Uncle Franco.

Many great things are in Barre…

On Main Street

AR Market stands for Alimentari Roscini, or “Roscini’s Foods,” an homage to Peter Roscini Coleman’s family name.

Vermont Salumi began its journey in 2011 with a modest 300 square feet of space.

In 2019, we renovated our current 9,000-square-foot location to accommodate the growth of Vermont Salumi's meat curing operations and to cater to the needs of discerning food enthusiasts worldwide.

Our location is home to AR Market, offering a delightful fusion of Vermont and Italian flavors, as well as Pearl Street Pizza, where you can savor delicious wood-fired or pan pizzas alongside an extensive menu and bar selection
