Blaine Campany is the fourth generation and only female butcher to make the sausage and run the meat market.

Croghan Meat Market is a North Country family institution. Croghan is a small town in Lewis County, north of Lowville. For more than a century, the market has been making a type of sausage called Croghan Bologna. The bologna has made the market famous. WRVO'S Julia Botero visited the market and spoke to Blaine Campany, the fourth generation of the Campany family to take over the business.
