Whole Foods has medium avocados for 69 cents apiece right now. I just bought some three hours ago.

I need to get some stickers that say "You did this" and plaster them all over St. Tammany.

This isn't an immediate solution, since it's unlikely to bear any fruit over the course of this upcoming growing season, but New Orleans, Houston, and the rest of the Gulf Coast are in a pretty ideal range of climate zones for growing Mexican cultivars of avocado in ground, and the Guatemalan varieties you typically see at the grocery store can definitely be grown in pots. If you want to have tariff-proof avocados for years to come, your best bet would be to plant A and B Type avocado trees together so that they can pollinate each other. Avocados can be pruned to whatever size you can manage and it's possible to plant two or three different varieties in the same hole together if space is an issue.
Another thing I would suggest here is to look at what other fruits and vegetables you enjoy that would be affected by the tariffs. Some can be grown in ground and others might do better in pots, but you can really offset those increased prices by growing your own food. At the same time, growing your own fruits and vegetables comes with the added benefit of being able to grow varieties and cultivars that you might not typically find at the grocery store. Some ideas include citrus, guava, pineapple guava, strawberry guava, pepper, eggplant, tomato, mirliton, lychee, rambutan, mangosteen, Barbados cherry, cherry of the Rio Grande, Surinam Cherry, cacao, papaya, loquat, mango, banana, sapote, quince, cherimoya, atemoya, soursop, sugar apple, blackberry, raspberry, and blueberry, and also things like pomegranate, fig, jujube, plum, pluot, and peach, which might substantially depend upon immigrant labor.

I did our groceries a few days ago, and there were several things that were about $2 more than they were the week before. Both fresh and our trash panda treats.

Omg!! I wanted to get these made and start putting them on signs when shit starts to go down.
I wanted to use sticker mule, but I heard the owner was a hard core trumper and I didn’t want my order to get traced back to me. 😂😂😂😂

They’re still under a dollar at Wally world. Anytime Ive ever bought packaged avocados they sucked. They stayed to hard until they were rotten everytime.
