Give More This Holiday Season—Even on a Smaller Budget!

This year, you can give more without spending more by joining the Shop Indie Local movement! We’re shifting more of our holiday shopping to locally owned businesses—our friends and neighbors right here in the community. And we invite you to do the same!

Why Shop Indie Local?

When you shop at locally owned retail businesses, your dollars have a bigger impact on the local economy. More of your money stays in the community, creating ripple effects that boost jobs, increase charitable contributions, and promote overall prosperity. By choosing to shop Indie Local, you’re not just making a purchase—you’re investing in the strength and vitality of your local economy.

Shop Indie Local: Give More to Your Loved Ones

When you think of gift-giving, consider more than just “stuff.” What do you truly want to give your loved ones? Whether it’s hope, inspiration, or a sense of connection, shopping locally helps support everyone involved in creating that gift—from the people who grow and make the products to those who sell and deliver them. When you Shop Indie Local, you’re not only giving to your friends and family, but you’re also giving back to your community.

Plaid Friday: A Fun Way to Show Your Support

This year, kick off your holiday shopping by celebrating Plaid Friday on November 29! Plaid Friday is a fun way to support local businesses while wearing plaid to symbolize your commitment to shopping local. Some independent shops will serve as Plaid Friday Hubs, where you can get your photo taken decked out in plaid, ask questions about the movement, and take advantage of special offers.

Stay tuned for more Plaid Friday specials and events, and let’s make this holiday season a meaningful one by supporting the people and businesses that make our community unique!

What will you give more of this year?
