Did you know that when you shop LOCAL, you have helped the environment? Buying from a local Business conserves energy and resources in the form of less fuel for transportation, less packaging, and products that you know are safe and well made, because local businesses stand behind them. Also when you shop LOCAL, you have created more choice! Our local businesses pick the items they sell based on what you like and want. Local businesses carry a wide array of unique products because they buy for their own individual markets.
