84 DAYS LEFT.

LOCAL IS COMING BACK.
THE COUNTDOWN RETURNS.

Local was created to make money. Truth is—it never really has.

And with everything going on in my life right now, especially this business divorce, I had to put Local on pause. I simply couldn’t keep carrying everything at once.

But Local was always more than whether it made money.

It became something local. Something fun. Something that belonged to the community.

So when it comes back, I’m keeping it that way.

If you’ve got pictures with your Local, start sending them in. Old ones, new ones, wherever Local has traveled with you. I’ll start posting them as we count down.

We built this thing together.
So let’s bring it back together.

84 days.
This is OUR Local.

86 days.

The countdown continues.

The Local isn’t just coming back—it’s coming back with a purpose.

More stories.
More adventures.
More people.
More Florida.

Keep exploring. Keep supporting local. We’ll see you soon.

86 days until the Local returns. ☀️🌴

Behind the Scenes at LOCAL. 🎥☀️

We’ve been a little quiet because we’ve been busy creating.

While everyone sees the finished photos, these moments are where it all comes together. Long days, an incredible crew, and a lot of hard work bringing the LOCAL vision to life.

This is just a small peek behind the scenes of our latest shoot.

90 Days.

More photos are on the way. More stories. More LOCAL.

South Florida… we’re just getting started. 🌴

105 DAYS LEFT

INTENTIONS

Don’t be confused because I have multiple businesses, brands, and projects moving at the same time. My intentions with LOCAL have already been made clear, and if you ever need reassurance, go back through my previous posts.

My intention is to continue sharing an array of photos from the past—the people, products, places, and moments that helped build your LOCAL brand.

Today, I’m keeping it simple with a great product photo.

In life, what comes back to you is often rooted in the intention you carried right before you made your move. It isn’t only about the good you have done or the good you say you want to do. It is about that private little space inside you where the decision is made.

That intention becomes the boomerang.

Sometimes it comes back carrying something fantastic. Other times, it returns carrying exactly what you earned—and people call that karma.

My intentions are clear. LOCAL is safe.

🏴‍☠️ LOCAL Countdown – 106 Days

“Why is the rum always gone?”

Because… it is.

Yes, there’s rum in this picture. This photo was taken during a different chapter of the LOCAL story. The rum has been completely sold through. There’s not another bottle left. It’s simply part of where we’ve been, not where we’re going.

Now here’s the interesting part…

Some people will see this picture and think, “Ron must have found AA.” Others will think, “Ron is against alcohol now.”

Neither is true.

I haven’t found AA, and I don’t need AA. I simply do what I choose in each moment. The moment tells me what’s right for me. Freedom isn’t about saying yes or no to something—it’s about not being controlled by it either way.

And then there’s Vanessa.

She’s holding a bottle of rum. Does that mean she drinks rum? Does it mean she believes in it? Does it define who she is?

Of course not.

A photograph captures a moment. It doesn’t define a person.

Perception isn’t in the picture.

Perception exists within the observer.

If you need reassurance on what I’m doing with your LOCAL brand, check my previous post. Everything you’re seeing is intentional. Trust the process.

106 Days.

The countdown continues…

🚨 108 DAYS UNTIL LOCAL RETURNS. 🚨

Every LOCAL collaboration has a story. This one carries decades of South Florida craftsmanship.

Featured here is Hannah, daughter of the talented family behind Tribute Boats of West Palm Beach. The Tribute name has become synonymous with building some of the finest custom sportfishing boats on the water, and today the family proudly continues that tradition.

What makes this collaboration special is the artwork on the back of the shirt. It isn’t an artist’s interpretation—it is the actual line drawing taken directly from the original design schematics of a 65-foot Tribute Sportfisherman. We pulled those lines from the original plans and transformed them into wearable artwork, preserving a piece of South Florida boatbuilding history.

That has always been the vision behind LOCAL.

Not just apparel.

Stories.

Legacies.

Craftsmanship.

The people and families who have helped shape South Florida into what it is today.

This Tribute collaboration represents exactly that, and we’re honored to share a small piece of their legacy.

The countdown continues…

108 DAYS UNTIL LOCAL RETURNS.

LOCAL isn’t just something you wear. It’s where you’re from.

LOCAL FLORIDA
COUNTDOWN CONTINUES — 111 DAYS

111.

Maybe it’s just a number.

Or maybe you’ve noticed it before.

1:11 on the clock.
11:11.
A receipt that totals $1.11.
A room number.
A street address.

Some people call it coincidence.

Others believe numbers become meaningful when we choose to pay attention.

For the next 111 days, notice where this number finds you.

And maybe…

When the countdown reaches 1, we all come together to celebrate the next chapter of Local.

111 days. The countdown continues.

LOCAL COUNTDOWN — 112 DAYS

Before there was a countdown…
there were moments like this.

No marketing plan.
No trend.
Just good people, the water, the sun, and a brand that grew because it meant something.

Local was never just a logo.
It represented a way of living—simple, genuine, and connected.

Over the past few years, I’ve stripped away everything that no longer reflects who I am. Not because those things were wrong, but because I believe a brand should be built from passion, not obligation.

Local isn’t disappearing.
It’s returning with a clearer purpose.

112 days.

The memories remain.
The next chapter is being built.

The Kavaron Product Guarantee

When you purchase a Kavaron product, you’re getting more than a product—you’re getting my personal guarantee.

Every Kavaron product is ethically manufactured by me and backed by my name. Where extraction is appropriate, I use it because it serves the product—not to create or artificially increase 7-OH.

My commitment is simple:

✔️ No 7-OH adulteration.
✔️ No chemically synthesized 7-OH.
✔️ No synthetic or semi-synthetic 7-OH derivatives.
✔️ No concentrated or chemically converted 7-OH.
✔️ Only Noble Kava.

Kavaron is built on transparency, integrity, and accountability. I use only noble kava and stand behind every product I manufacture. Noble kava is the traditional variety recognized in international guidance, including published assessments by the World Health Organization. That’s why I choose it—and why I stand behind every Kavaron product.

My personal guarantee is posted on our products and available in our menu because trust should be earned—not assumed.

You can find Kavaron products at five locations today:

📍 Ron’s Kavasutra Deerfield

If my name is on it, I stand behind it.

Real Kava. Real Standards. Real Accountability. That’s the Kavaron Difference.

LOCAL COUNTDOWN

112 Days Until the Next Chapter

Some brands disappear.

Some brands evolve.

Local was never just a logo on a hat.

It was late nights…
Friends becoming family…
Conversations that lasted until sunrise…
And a community that believed in something different.

That spirit never left.

It simply needed time to grow into what comes next.

The countdown continues.

112 days until Local begins its next chapter.

The heart remains the same.

The standards are higher.

The vision is bigger.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey—from the very beginning to today.

See you soon.

— Ron Van Tassell
