This is not completely off my Dumpster Diva topic… hear me out! 😂
Y’all know how much I LOVE sourcing things that might otherwise end up in a landfill. Give me an old dresser, a discarded door, some reclaimed wood or a piece of rusty ceiling tin and I’m gonna figure out a way to give it another life! ❤️
Saving money, saving time, and saving the planet one old piece of furniture at a time! That’s kinda what Dumpster Diva’s Design was built on.
But y’all also know I love sharing other small businesses and local vendors with you. Because keeping our little hometown businesses in business is practically doing the Lord’s work! 😂🙌
So today, we’re talking BEEF! 🥩😂
We picked up these two boxes from Bear Creek Meat Market right here in Leonard, and I was impressed!
🥩 Cowboy Box — $79.99
5 beautiful, thick-cut NY strip steaks
🥩 Sunday Slow Cooker Box — $99.99
Short ribs, stew meat, chili meat and round steak
And here's the part I LOVE…
The cows are literally ONE BLOCK from the meat market, and the beef is processed only about 10 miles away! Now THAT is buying local! 🙌
Could I drive out of town to a big box store and possibly find a certain cut a little cheaper? Maybe. But by the time I spend the gas, the time and fight the crowds, I'll happily spend my money right here in our little town. Plus, I know where this beef came from, I'm supporting local families, AND just look at the marbling on those steaks! 😍
Whether it's an old dresser that needs saving, an antique vendor with a booth full of treasures, or the folks down the road raising the beef we're putting on our dinner table… supporting local matters.
Small businesses aren't backed by giant corporations. They're backed by neighbors, friends and people like YOU choosing to spend your money with them. ❤️
So if you're local, go check out Bear Creek Meat Market! And if you're not, find a little meat market, antique shop, restaurant, boutique or family-owned business in YOUR town and give them some love.
Shop small. Shop local. Keep our little towns thriving. ❤️
