Tis the Season to Shop Small and Shop Local
Tis the season to shop small and shop local with our curated gift guide featuring 5 fabulous Florida gifts from small local West Palm Beach businesses.
Saturday, November 28 is small business Saturday, and we all need your support more than ever. Locally owned restaurants and shops are what make any town unique…they are our friends and neighbors, they sponsor the little league team and donate to the school auction, they are always there with a smile. Let’s keep that smile going this holiday season.
Fun fact: 3x as much money stays in your community when shopping at a locally owned business vs shopping at a chain store according to Forbes.
In the spirit of small business Saturday, I’ve put together a gift guide of 5 West Palm Beach gifts from small local businesses.
