Need A Buzzword

Can you folks help?

I'm trying to come up with a buzzword that means "buying local" - sort of like how locovore (sp?) applies to eating local.

I'm coming up dry (and I'm usually pretty good at this). The brain does not seem to be functioning today.

This is for a flyer that I'm sending to some of the larger firms in town that likely have a need for what I'm selling - but wouldn't think that its manufactured locally (which it is - by me!).

I wanted to emphasize the "hometown" aspect in the title of the flyer.

Any clever folks out there this afternoon?
