Shopping Locally
Greetings,
As we enter one of our favorite times of the year, November-December, we start thinking of how and where to "shop locally".
One way is to go directly to SantaCruzParent's Business Directory and support those businesses that bring you  our newsletters! Another way is to visit Think Local First's Directory to see which businesses have made it their business to promote and support each others' local businesses.
When we shop and spend our money locally, much more of it circulates and remains in our local economy. This translates into healthier businesses which hire employees, who all buy from local businesses and pay taxes which support the services we must have -police and fire protection, road maintenance, etc. It's a vibrant circle when we conscientiously make it work for our communities.
Happy shopping and good value hunting!
