Un café, dos, tres.. Jamás me ha traicionado una taza. La primera es espectacular, la segunda es gozo, la tercera es por puro placer. El efecto de la cuarta, siempre ha sido mi culpa, no la del café.

If you love coffee, this is your Super Bowl. ☕

We spent the day at the @dccoffeefestival at @unionmarketdc, where the city's best specialty roasters and coffee shops all set up under one roof, endless tastings, baristas pulling shots, unique beans, and good music to sip to.

We tried more cups than we can count and found a few new favorites. This is the kind of event that reminds you how much talent is brewing (literally) in this city.

Save this for next year.
Tag your coffee-obsessed friend.
P.S. there's no such thing as too much coffee ✨

Great question! I’m so glad you asked. Let’s take a little adventure to find out. 👉

Where you spend your money affects where that money goes next. And next. And next.

Here’s why buying from independent makers and businesses can have a much bigger impact than you might think.

Independent businesses don’t exist in isolation. They tend to spend more of their money locally: on employees, services, supplies, rent, accountants, designers, printers, and other local businesses.

So your $100 doesn’t stop with the person you bought something from. It keeps moving. 💸

That’s how your purchase can keep circulating through a community instead of making one very long trip to corporate headquarters (and those nasty dudes who are hoarding literally all the wealth on the planet).

Sources: American Independent Business Alliance; Virtasant.

A study by the Institute for Local Self-Reliance looked specifically at San Francisco and found that every $1 million spent at independent retailers generated an additional $321,000 in local economic activity, including $119,000 in wages and salaries.

That’s the local multiplier effect: money gets spent, then spent again, then spent again.

Buying locally doesn’t magically make a product carbon-neutral. But shorter supply chains can mean fewer transportation miles and less of the global logistics required to get mass-produced goods from factories to our front doors.

When you’re buying directly from a local maker, there’s no transcontinental journey required just to get the thing from the person who made it to the person who bought it.

You don’t have to be dogmatic about it, no one needs that kind of pressure. 🙃 But when you’re going to spend money anyway, it’s worth knowing that where you spend it can have an impact beyond the item you bring home.

This holiday season, consider putting some of your shopping dollars toward the people, businesses, and creative communities that make the Bay Area what it is.
💪🪩🌈💐
