I grow and preserve the vast majority of my fruit and vegetables.
I go to a local butcher for my locally raised meats.
A mom and pop corner grocery supplies my GOYA beans et al and Bob’s Red Mill (sometimes King Arthur) grain products.
And the farmer’s market takes care of most of the rest.
I am fortunate I know how to cook and bake and sew...
People need to do what they are able but I urge every patriot to break the binds of global commercialism. It is difficult...
... FOR EXAMPLE: I am trying to purchase a harness for my son’s dog because she has developed throat abscesses and can no longer wear a collar. I am a week into this search and can only find harnesses made in CCP land. FU CCP — I will most likely end up making my own out of rope and knots.... I may even get crazy and macramé the straps....
Do what you are able and let’s collectively break our dependence on despots — be they politicians or corporations....
Actually I found a small local harness maker about 100 miles from me.... who would have thunk it....
I should have my locally, hand crafted dog harness by Tuesday — crafted with more quality than I could have provided — nylon webbing can be tricky to sew with a standard Singer...

Get some nylon webbing and sew it together yourself....
And 5here you have it!

Good for you! A lot of times good local businesses can not be found because they have no website or just a f.ckbook page.
It took a bit of looking — and there she was!
Super happy I found her company as I really didn’t want to take the time to macrame the harness....
If we all look we can find folks in our communities providing the goods and services we want/need
