Support These LGBTQ+-Owned Businesses With Your Next Grocery Order

You've probably heard the phrase "when you order from a small business, someone does a happy dance" before. And it's true! We can all be doing our part to be conscious consumers and to make sure we're supporting brands that share our values and beliefs, and you can start this Pride month.

Pride month falls during the month of June every year as a tribute to those who were involved in the Stonewall Riots. When a police raid of gay and lesbian bars in the Greenwich Village area of Manhattan started, patrons of the bars fought back. This moment is thought of as one of the major turning points of the LGBTQ+ rights movement. Now, every year during June, Pride is observed in the United States and in places all over the world.

In order to support the LGBTQ+ community it's important to be an understanding and intersectional ally and that includes putting your money where your mouth is. These LGBTQ+-owned food and beverage companies are a good place to start.
