Reminder (especially on a grey, blustery, rainy day like today) - shopping online is impersonal and simply transactional. As you shop this weekend for your holiday, consider connecting with the people who source, display and know their products. You’ll find there’s heart, soul and spirit there. You’ll find there’s energy and care. You may even find the exchange fulfilling, perhaps even rewarding. Isn’t that what the holidays are -actually- about?

Gentle reminder as we enter the holiday season, friends. When you shop locally and shop small, you are doing good by your entire community. Small business is the anchor of every neighborhood - the folks who keep your Main St well lit, your neighbors employed, your home values up, your charitable organizations funded. We are the folks who actually care about your patronage, more than just our bottom line. We go far out of our way to ensure your purchase is exactly what you want, when you want it, how you want it. Big Box stores cannot say the same, and online-only businesses are intentionally hard to reach. Your local bookstore, gift shop, pizza parlor, wine store, coffee shop, deli, grocer, salon, theater, florist, repair shop… they are here for YOU. Be there for them this season, no matter how small the purchase.

One of a lengthy list of credos. Not too many of us need more stuff, whether that’s accessories, homewares, or outrageous amounts of food in the pantry. What makes us thrive is knowing what we have is genuine quality, made by people who care deeply about what they produce. Let’s consider consuming less factory-borne goods. Let’s instead consider savoring products that add value to our lives and build on purpose to the folks who create.

As Shopping is America’s favorite pastime, and marketers put pressure on to buy buy buy, we thought this template might be helpful to some. What do we NEED? Food, Water, Shelter, Rest. What do we value? Health, Peace, Inspiration, Good Company, Freedom. Everything else should require pause.

It’s . Your Main Street depends upon you to thrive. Whether that’s goin’ whole hog, or just stopping by to say hello, it means the world to your local entrepreneurs. Can’t drop by? Leave a nice review. Or spread the word to your friends about your favorite businesses. Above all, be kind to those hard working hourly employees. They’ve seen it all, heard it all, felt it all, and they can use a nod of recognition now and again. ❤️☺️🐭

Your holiday cheese platters should be a work of art. But let’s be honest - good -real- food doesn’t need to assembled in precious designs. And it definitely shouldn’t be embellished with crap from the supermarket bulk candy aisle. Good food speaks for itself in volume. Let us help you assemble your perfect presentation. Or order one of our custom boards on our website. For 4th of July, we use exclusively American artisan products, clearly labeled, curated with passion for quality and with a deep seated appreciation for small economies. No one platter is the same and we take great pride in our personalized customer service.

Oh boy. Since we’ve received this image from a million friends with a gazillion giggle emojis, we’re just gonna be a grown-up and share with the world that Ivy, Owner of , in Pleasantville, NY, does in fact appear to enjoy shoving cheese up her nose in public forums. In reality, she works her tail off to promote her tiny shop for customers (new, old, and soon to be discovered) and prospective experienced Mongers who may want a new opportunity in a cute, privately owned business in the northern stretches of the Metro NY region.
We like cheese. We dig curious people. We love to laugh. And, for better or for worse, we’re humble(d).
