This is your sign that you don't have to be perfect to be sustainable... you just have to care!

🦇 SUPPORT HEALTHY COMMUNITIES
People who shop at farmers markets have 15-20 social interactions per visit. They would have only 1-2 per visit to the grocery store.

🦇 INCREASE ACCESS TO FRESH FOOD
60% of farmers market shoppers in low-income neighborhoods say that their market had better prices than the grocery store.

🦇 STIMULATE LOCAL ECONOMIES
Farmers selling locally create 13 full-time jobs per $1 million in revenue earned. Those not selling locally create only 3.

🦇 PRESERVE FARMLAND & RURAL LIVELIHOODS
The U.S. loses an acre of farmland a minute to development.

My hope for this series is to encourage you to shop local and shop small, starting with your local farmer's markets. Let's make this a trend! Post your farmer's market hauls and tag me! Don't forget about the amazing artisans! I want to see all the yummy and cool things 🖤

🎶 It's just another Market Monday 🎶

I want to start a new series where I post my "haul" from the farmer's market every week!
Here are some of the things I got over the last few months.

Did you go to the farmer's market this weekend?

Ooo that belt has a story 👌🏽
Love it 🖤

Sorry for the late post. The edited video was deleted during the Tiktok debacle, and I finally re-edited it.

Late Night Thrifting w/ Gin Martini Pt.2:Try-On...finally 😅

I hope you enjoyed our thrift trip, and it inspired you to do 1 of your own. Remember, secondhand, first ♻️🖤🌎

What's QRP?

I'm trying to clear out my drafts and post more. I have so many drafts 😅

My goal is to post every Friday bare minimum. Let me know if there's any specific content you would like to see.

Finally, I am posting this unboxing video made possible by @zerowastesunflower (IG) Thank you so much! I am so grateful for you 🖤🫂🥹

It's been a few months, and I am loving my products from @agcare1989 (IG). Let me know if you want an in-depth review.

Oh wow! Such a cool concept. Thanks for giving us a peek into your world. I might have to switch out my moldy bamboo soap holds for stainless steel 😅 I was trying to salvage them.

I can't wait!

So excited for this! This one is free 😮

More ways to push back:
1. Shopping small and local
2. Only buying necessities
3. Shopping secondhand
4. Removing and not using apps from unsavory companies (like the video above)
5. Connecting to community
6. Educating and encouraging others to push back
7. DIYing instead of buying (next post 👀)

The frontlines are not for everyone... and that's ok

"PUNK IS ABOUT REVOLTING AGAINST A SOCIETY THAT DOESN'T THINK YOU DESERVE A REVOLUTION!"

Keep following along to see how I am pushing back 🔥

Share! Knowledge is power!

As a person from the US, I totally get it 🫣😅😮‍💨

Friendly reminder: if you are waiting on something from a US-based scientist/reviewer/editor, please realize that we're barely making it through each day putting out non-stop fires and trying not to collapse into tears. We're trying our best, but things will take longer right now. Give grace.

Trying to act normal while everything, seemingly, is falling apart around you, is getting old. It will be 1 month in 3 days... I'm trying to stay positive and prepare for the worst all at the same time.
Sometimes, I wish I could be blissfully ignorant, but my skin and my gender do not allow me to.
