Competition is Sin: The Battle Between Small Business and Big Industry In Episode 12 of Small Town Values, we sit down with local business owners Jason Peters, Paul Romanelli, and Benjamin Doroski to tackle the real struggles of running a business today. From skyrocketing insurance premiums to competing with big-box retailers and online giants, we break down the harsh realities small businesses face. We also dive into inflation, political lobbying, and how government policies often favor big corporations while small businesses fight to survive. Is there a future for brick-and-mortar businesses in small-town America? 🔔 This is our first episode on the Small Town Values Podcast YouTube channel!

🌾 Preserve Our Rural Beauty 🌾 Farmland shapes the open spaces and rural charm we love—but it’s at risk. As farmers face rising costs and unsustainable markets, many are forced to sell land for development. This shifts the voter base, as new residents may not understand the importance of preserving farmland. Rob Carpenter, head of the Long Island Farm Bureau, speaks about this critical issue in this video. Farmers pay dearly to maintain open spaces, but without voter support, policies favor suburban sprawl, eroding our community’s character. Let’s support farmers now to protect the spaces and values that brought us here. #SmallTownValues #SupportFarmers #ProtectFarmland #RuralPreservation

🌾 Farming: A Voice Worth Hearing 🌾 Steve Mudd of Mudd Vineyards highlights a growing challenge: farming is becoming financially unsustainable, and with fewer voters tied to farming, elected officials often overlook these voices. It’s time for our community to stand together and amplify the concerns of local farmers. Without them, our small towns and their unique character are at risk. Join the conversation and advocate for a sustainable future for farming and small-town life! #SmallTownValues #SupportFarmers #SustainableFarming #SmallTownLife #CommunityFirst #LocalFarms #AgricultureMatters #FarmersVoices #SaveSmallTowns #EconomicSustainability #FarmingFuture #LocalBusinessSupport #AgricultureCrisis #RuralAmerica #FarmingChallenges

🌟 “There is no community if there’s no business. You’ll have a ghost town—that’s not the character of the North Fork.” – Dave Perrin, Cedar House 🌟 Small businesses define who we are as a community. Without them, we lose the vibrancy, connection, and identity that make the North Fork special. As rising costs and dwindling support challenge their survival, it’s time to stand together. Support your local businesses, champion our farmers, and keep the North Fork thriving. Together, we can protect our community’s heart and soul. ❤️ #SupportLocal #SmallTownValues #NorthForkStrong #SmallBusiness #Southold

Small Businesses and Farmers are the backbone of our community, but they’re feeling the squeeze from inflation, rising labor costs, and more. It’s time for organizations like the Chamber of Commerce to step up and rally our local businesses—just as civic associations have done for their causes. Let’s work together to ensure our town listens to business owners and farmers, prioritizing their needs and fostering economic growth. #SmallTownValues #SupportLocalBusiness #CommunityFirst #TheNorthFork

If you're a small business and you will not be in business for 2025 please reach out! We want to hear your story!

Civic Associations vs. Chambers—Who’s Advocating for You? We sit down with David Perrin of Cedar House to discuss the incredible job Civic Associations have done in rallying people together, demonstrating the strength in numbers. But this raises a key question: 👉 Why hasn’t the Chamber done the same for its members? In the next few videos, we’ll dive into this question and explore how stronger collaboration could benefit the entire community. #SmallTownValues #SupportLocalBusiness #CommunityMatters

🌱 How Can Local Governments Support Farmers? 🚜 In the first short of our Small Town Values Episode 3 series, we dive into this pressing question with Anthony Sannino of Sannino Vineyards.

The Future of North Fork Wineries Starts with You. In Episode 3, we talked to Ron Goerler of Jamesport Vineyards, who shares a critical message: We need more visitors to survive. Local customers alone can’t consume the vast amount of wine Long Island vineyards produce. To sustain our farms, wineries, breweries, and small businesses, we need to attract retail customers to the North Fork—people who come to enjoy, explore, and support our unique community. Let’s work together to ensure the North Fork remains a small agricultural town and thriving business destination. #SmallTownValues #JamesportVineyards #SupportLocalFarms #SanninoVineyard #NorthForkWineries #VisitNorthFork #ShopSmall

Let’s begin with understanding the reasoning behind the latest push for ReZoning and why stagnation during the process is detrimental to the small business owner.
