Shop local this Christmas

My Christmas shopping is done. And I am happy to say I found everything I needed locally (as I do every year) with a few other items I made myself. Shopping local is important this year, to help folks keep their doors open during this unusual and interesting time. There is something for everyone on your list, I guarantee it.

When was the last time you took a Saturday saunter downtown in Sechelt or Gibsons? We are lucky to have the awesome stores we do. I feel gratitude every time I take a stroll down our main street. A little bit of planning and creativity is all that’s needed to get the job done.

There is nothing like making a connection with local folks who care enough for our community to choose to build a business here. Here in our little town. For the love of our community, to keep the doors open, I encourage you with all my heart, to shop local this Christmas and every Christmas thereafter.
