Why shop local?

These days, it’s easy to order everything you need online. But there’s a lot to be said for shopping locally instead.

Here’s why we love to support local businesses:

✅ Invest in your community. More of the money you spend with small businesses stays in the local economy.

✅ Support local jobs. Small businesses are often great places to work and offer unique opportunities for employees.

✅ Preserve local character. Independent shops make your area unique and can be a draw for visitors and new residents.

✅ Get better customer service. Small businesses often form long-term relationships with their customers.

✅ Protect the environment. Buying what you need in person cuts back on carbon emissions from shipping.
