There are so many ways to shop small and support local.
We seem to have this conversation everyday. How we want to support small business. Shopping small when we can is a goal for many of my friends.. From going to coffee at Sweetcakes Cakery to running in to ShopRite for items, to filling up our tanks when we can. We all seem to enjoy some meals in town and treats.. some stuff for the garden from the Hardware or Forever green.
But did you know it is also equally important to shop with businesses that collaborate local?
Say Crystal's Country Cuts LLC, she has pet shampoo from Sweet Suds By Bree. That right there helps two businesses itself. Then if you break it down further ... Sweet Suds By Bree buys coconut oil and so forth rather local. ( small )
Also When you go to Sweet Cakes, the Salons, or Rebel Soul and purchase Sweet Suds By Bree Products.. Depending what you get some of the items in the finished products .. like plants, florals, special salt for salts, and other cool stuff is bought local or relatively local. ( small ) Even the honey and bee's wax is local!!!
By this we can determine you have shopped local and the money stays local and goes full circle! One or two items may have helped 2 or 3 or 4 businesses local.
New products are coming, fun items, cute ones, and more! Much research is going into many of these item's ingredients. Some are ingredients now being grown. Branching out to farm markets and so forth as well.
Till next Time - Bree
