Shop Local Daily Directory
We know it can be difficult to shop small & local for everyday items like food and toiletries or supplies for self-sufficiency DIY projects like hardware and fabric. That’s why we put together this directory! Supporting small business owners, artisans and farmers keeps more money in our local economy, reduces environmental impact, supports the livelihood of our neighbors and allows you a unique opportunity to get to know the people who grow your produce, provide your meat & dairy, and thoughtfully stock their shelves with the everyday household items we all need.
If you would like to suggest a business or farm be added to the list or would like to request free physical copies of the directory to hand out, please send an email to info@thirdspaceomaha.org

Practical Tips for Shopping Local Every Day
Stock Up To save many trips to many different locations, stock up on things you consume frequently: freeze extra meat, buy an extra package or two of toilet paper or bar soap. Whenever you’re already in that part of town, buy another so you aren’t pressed for the convenient chain option when you urgently need something.
Make A Day Of It: Pickup a friend and hit a few stores or a farmer’s market together! Load the kids in the car when you visit a farm stand. Many have animals on the property kids love to see (but always ask before approaching or petting!)
Cut Back On Processed Food: We all know this is sound advice from a health standpoint, but this makes sense shopping locally as well. It’s much easier to find local sources of produce, meat, dairy and grains than Oreos and instant ramen.
Eat With The Seasons: It’s hard to find strawberries locally in the winter or sweet corn in the spring: so make a point to eat what’s in season and locally available throughout the year.
Follow Local Businesses on Social Media or Join Their Mailing List: It’s easy to forget about local options when big chains have huge marketing budgets and locations on every corner. Follow your favorite local shops to keep them top of mind and to stay current on their product offerings and sales.
Start Small: Swap just one or two items that you buy frequently from a large chain to a local business. Once that becomes second-nature, make another swap. You don’t have to completely change your buying habits overnight!
