Did you know?

Today's food for thought:
Supporting local merchants plays a significant role in contributing to the economic and social vitality of a community. Local merchants employ people, build the local tax base, and contribute to the diversity of products and services available to neighborhood residents. Moreover, of every dollar spent at a locally owned shop, $0.88 is re-circulated 3.5 times within the community (as compared with only $0.13 of every dollar spent in a big-box store).
