10 Ways To Put Your Money Where Your Values Are
Supporting a local market
We won’t name the major ones here, but you know which grocery chains they are, and they’ll be just fine if you start swapping out one trip a month there, for one trip to a smaller market. If there is a family who has opened a smaller market with food items from local creators, like local chefs and ice cream makers, pop in there from time to time. Maybe you can’t afford to do so for all of your grocery trips, but you can do so for some – or even just for a select few items they carry. These smaller markets tend to make an effort to feature things from local places, like muffins from a local baker, and soaps from a local soap crafter. When you shop there, you support the community at large.
