I believe small-batch makers are the heartbeat of a healthier food system. My focus is on supporting locally sourced, sustainable brands that put people, communities, and real ingredients first. By championing independent vendors, we help keep dollars in local economies, reduce wasteful supply chains, and fuel the creativity that big manufacturing can’t replicate. Every product featured comes from a business that cares about quality, craft, and community impact - not mass production. This holiday season, choosing small isn’t just a purchase - it’s a vote for better food, fairer practices, and a future where local makers can thrive. When we shop small, we’re not just giving gifts. We’re giving support, opportunity, and momentum to the entrepreneurs building something meaningful.

“To ‘put by’ is an old, deep southern way of saying to ‘save something you don’t need now, for the time when you will need it.’ Preserving fresh food by canning, freezing, or dehydrating is a fantastic way to enjoy fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables throughout the year. It can undoubtedly be a healthier alternative to commercially available products and a more cost-effective way to feed your family. I find great pleasure in knowing that I have a delicious product made entirely from “scratch.” Every food has an optimal way of preserving it. Much of that depends on your personal preference for consuming each food. For example, berries can be canned as jam or syrup, made into juice, dried into leather or slices, or frozen in bulk.
