IR Editor-in-Chief Mark Vargas traveled to Naples, Florida to moderate a discussion alongside Alfie Oakes, the founder of Oakes Farm and owner of the patriotic and popular grocery store Seed to Table, that featured former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich, one of the nation’s highest profile Trumpocrat’s — a Democrat who supports President Donald Trump — as the former governor previewed the book that he’s been working on quietly for the last several months.

The event, which was held at Seed to Table in Naples, was hosted by Oakes and Matrix Home Solutions founder and CEO Nick Richmond. The discussion was broadcast live on Rumble, and was heard on speakers throughout the 75,000 square foot grocery store as people shopped and dined. An estimated 200 people sat in the upper level of the store to watch the discussion live on stage.
 

Seed to Table remains a popular spot for supporters of President Trump and even showcases a MyPillow section that includes a cardboard cutout of MyPillow founder and CEO Mike Lindell. The patriotic store also sells Trump merchandise and patriotic apparel outside, including hats, shirts, bumper stickers and magnets. And several American flags are proudly displayed throughout the patriotic grocery store and fresh produce market.

Seed to Table also is one of the places where you can find Kirk's Hot Sauce, the all-American hot sauce brand inspired by Iowa football legend Carroll "Chick" Kirk, and brought to life by his grandson Charlie Kirk, Founder and President of Turning Point USA - the largest conservative youth organization in the country.
