Made in the USA

In the previous article we talked about purchasing American made goods and supporting Unions.  Bookmark this page and when you need to purchase something for yourself or someone else, look here first.


We'll continue to update this page as time permits and with input from our readers. For now, we'll list clothing, vacations, cookware and local ranches and farms.


Clothing:


Due to illness and a bad economy - Justice Clothing is having a clearance on a variety of clothing. See if you can purchase something you need and help them out.


All-American T-Shirt Company (need we say more?)
Union Label - from underwear to outerwear. Made in the USA
New Balance - Not all items are made in the US. Some are assembled here from imported materials.
Eastland - Shoes and materials made in the USA


Americans Working has a long list of items made in the USA.


Vacations:


Disney, Sea World, State Parks, City Parks, Zoos and most baseball parks are staffed with Union workers. Go to Union Label.org to see the different Unions staffing our fun locations.

All of our National Parks support the local economies. They are YOUR parks. Enjoy them!

Regal Ware - They state their cookware is made in the USA

Organic Beef Ranches
Alder Springs - Idaho (they grow more than potatoes)
Hearst Ranch -  California (they have more than just the castle)
