The Home Co.

10 years. Back-to-back. 💫

Endless gratitude to the rockstars who’ve been part of this journey — past and present — especially

Skip the chaos. Keep your values. 🖤

This Black Friday & Cyber Monday, let’s step away from the billionaire feeding frenzy — and remember what we’ve already learned together in this series.

Over the past few weeks, we uncovered the truth about where some of America’s biggest brands funnel their profits:

🚫 Amazon + Whole Foods → worker surveillance, union-busting, and record lobbying
🚫 Home Depot → billionaire political influence, ICE support
🚫 Hobby Lobby → extremist political funding + unethical cultural artifact scandals
🚫 Target → corporate consolidation, plastic-heavy supply chains, and DEI cancelation

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are their biggest cash grabs of the year — and every “deal” pushes more dollars into systems that don’t serve us.

Instead, let’s do something different:

🖤 Buy Nothing Day — rest, connect, reset
🛍 Shop Small Saturday — support local artists & independent businesses
🎁 Give Instead — nonprofits like , , , ,

✂️ Buy handmade
♻️ Buy secondhand
💚 Buy local

The best deal isn’t 70% off — it’s knowing your money is building the America you believe in.

🖤 Spend less.
💚 Care more.

Not all the rot is in the produce aisle.

As we head into Thanksgiving, many of us are stocking up, cooking with family, and thinking about what we’re grateful for. 🥕

It’s also the perfect moment to think about where we buy our ingredients — and who our dollars really nourish.

🚫 Whole Foods Market → Once independent, now owned by Amazon, the world’s largest corporate lobbyist. Since the acquisition, Amazon has been linked to union-busting, supplier cutbacks, and worker surveillance.

✅ Grocery Outlet Bargain Market → California-born and run by local independent operators. Affordable groceries, less waste, and profits that stay local. groceryoutlet.com

🌿 Sprouts Farmers Market → Fair-trade produce, transparent sourcing, and sustainable packaging — fresh food without the monopoly markup. sprouts.com

💚 Local Favorites:
• Grand Lake Farmers Market
(and many others across the East Bay)

• Berkeley Bowl |

• Monterey Market | .market

• Diablo Foods | .foods

• Market Hall Foods |

• Lunardi’s Markets |

This season, let’s choose ingredients that feed more than our tables — let’s feed local farms, fair wages, and community strength.

🥦 Shop local.
💚 Shop smart.

Our latest project proves that a few smart, strategic updates can make a hauntingly big difference.

We leaned into the home’s mid-century roots, updating what mattered most — kitchen, baths, lighting, and landscaping— for maximum impact (and minimum budget fright 👻).

Come see it in person at the open house this Sunday — if you dare. 🎃

Let’s craft a better future — together.

With Halloween around the corner, glue guns and glitter are flying 👻 — and creativity is in full swing.

But behind the aisles of ribbons and paintbrushes, not every store is as crafty as it seems.

🚫 Hobby Lobby → Millions in donations fund extremist, anti-LGBTQ+, and anti-women’s-rights causes — and even illegally imported artifacts for a private museum.

✅ Michaels → A better national option: accessible supplies, community workshops, and teacher support — without the political agenda.
