By encouraging residents to shop locally, we strengthen our economy, support jobs and build a stronger, more connected community.
Other benefits include:
- Reducing emissions by encouraging less travel
- Providing greater convenience for consumers
- Creating opportunities for local farmers and artists, trades retailers and more.
