During a recent trip to downtown Dickson, TN, I took a little time to explore the idyllic streets that feel like the small towns I grew up around in Ohio. Nestled on a side street is one of the town’s latest additions, Petal and Crumb Provisions. The bakery/flower shop offers small-batch goods made, grown, and raised in and around Dickson. Tapping into their farm-friendly, hyperlocal ethos, owners Kelsey and Kirby have hand-selected every item that you’ll find in the store. Stop in to enjoy a freshly baked pastry and a cup of coffee, or pick up provisions if you can’t make it to the grocery store. Pick up a sourdough loaf, browse vibrant flowers from their farm, and curated items from local makers.

Something to keep in mind as we start shopping for the holidays. Supporting small businesses not only keep money in local economies but also supports people in your community. All the more reason to this holiday season.

We’re excited to introduce you to Green Llama, a Johnson City, TN–based small business redefining how we think about cleaning products. During the pandemic, partners Kay Baker and Dr. Matt Keasey were inspired to reduce their family's plastic waste and limit their exposure to the harmful chemicals found in conventional household cleaning products. Embarking on an entrepreneurial journey, they've created a mission-driven, sustainable company offering a line of nontoxic cleaners from dishwasher pods to laundry detergent. With people and the planet at the heart of their mission, Green Llama creates non-toxic, low-waste cleaning products where a healthy home and environment go hand in hand.

La Palmeraie is a breakfast and coffee shop operating out of an outfitted airstream siturated on the idyllic Indian Springs property in Calistoga, CA. I stopped by for a morning coffee and egg sandwich made with St. Helena-based Model bakery. Add this to your stop when you're visiting Napa for a low-key bit under the palm trees.

When you find yourself on Main Street in Hudson, NY, The Meat Hook is a must stop. The butcher offers local and ethically raised meat along with a variety of locally sourced groceries. With locations in the city as well as Hudson, they're making it easy for New Yorkers to get locally grown food.

There are a lot of benefits to eating local
🫛 food is more nurtitious because it doesn't have to travel as far
🫛 supports small local farms and sustainable ag practices
🫛 keeps your money within the local community
🫛 greatly reduces your personal carbon footprint
