This General Store In New York Only Sells American-Made Products And It’s A True Treasure

Supporting local businesses here in New York comes with quite a few perks that make our residents feel good, like for instance the fact that they’re giving back to their community and also that these items are generally made with much more TLC. Doing your produce shopping at your town’s farmers market or shopping in the mom-and-pop store around the corner from your home are always good places to start, but if you truly love the idea of shopping local there’s only one store you need to visit.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/

Another thing that makes this store so unique is the high standard they maintain for their stocked goods, creating a standard that's even higher than that of the Federal Trade Commission.
