Shop Local This Holiday Season
11/10/2022

Shopping locally is a great way to support your community around you and to get high quality items from vendors who are typically passionate about what they are selling as opposed to the big box stores. It helps to keep more money in your state and town and helps to keep more and more jobs in the area as well. Shopping local is typically a very good choice, but it is especially a good choice around the Holiday season when local small businesses are counting on a bump in sales revenue in order to make up for rougher previous months in the year. So, by shopping locally you can both do good and feel good! In today’s article, we’re going to explore some local events and venues at which you can support your local small business owner, like Better Man Beard. 

November 18th Through 20th: Wintery Market, Boise
