The Tip is 'Don't procrastinate' For years I've been buying ink jet cartridges from a big box office supply store. These cartridges were made overseas and labeled with the well-known brand of a large American printer company. One I remembered a local store that advertised quality cartridges. I had traveled by this local store hundreds of times but never stopped. This time I stopped at the local store. To my surprise I discovered that they carried the cartridge I needed and it was a Made in USA cartridge. Made in Chicago, to be precise, and it was half the price of the imported ones I had been buying for years. The quality is exceptional and they last longer too. Who knew? After that experience, I make a point to stop at every store I can. By doing so, I've been finding more and more Made in America products. Occasionally the clerks don't know the country of origin; this can be discouraging but finding the origin information yourself isn't difficult I've come to realize. Believe it not, there are actually a number of computers made in the US including laptops made in the USA. When the label is not visibly displayed I use the other Made in America buying tips to help me find Made in US. If the store doesn't carry what you are looking for, use Made in America Secrets to find it and tell the manager about your experience at their store. If enough people are asking for Made in America products stores will begin to carry them. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Bear Foot Honey We at Bear Foot Honey Farm treasure our bees, their work ethic and the wonderful products they produce. Honeybees are fundamental to our diverse environment as they pollinate our crops and flower gardens while keeping our ecosystem balanced. As third generation beekeepers, we take great pride in our little girls (the honeybees). We show this love in the care we give the girls and they reciprocate by providing us some of the most uniquely exquisite pure, raw, gourmet honeys available. There is nothing nobler than to give back to these hard-working honey bees. Not all the honeys are the same! Honey is a natural sugar alternative with no additives that is easy on the stomach, and has an Indefinite shelf life. We never know what we will get from year to year as weather plays a significant role in the honey harvests. Our honey is harvested from our hives that have been purposefully placed in fields of blackberry, clover, raspberry, or seasonal wildflowers, or groves of apples, or oranges, to name but a few. When visiting our tasting room you experience over 15 different varietals of Raw & Creamed Honeys and we often introduce new varieties to tempt your palate. From delicate and fragrant to full-bodied and robust, our honeys will dance seductively on your tongue. We endeavor to Educate Not Mutilate, which allows you to taste honey that has the pure color, flavor, and texture cultivated by the varieties of pollens and nectar's that our bees forage. We retain these qualities and all the nutrients by making sure that our honeys are always unpasteurized, unfiltered, unprocessed, & unblended. We then use centrifugal force to extract the honey from the frames, allowing us to present some of the finest honeys that our family have been producing for three generations. |
