‘Tis the Season to Buy Local

“Buying Local” revives communities by helping the people closest to you. It builds businesses, supports families and makes a place feel like home. And it helps the environment by reducing packaging and shipping costs. What’s not to love?

Charleston’s 4th annual Buy Local Month started this week and runs through December 15.  Mom and Pop-up Shops have a home base downtown at 359 King Street, but they’ll also be popping-up in other locations to give us all a chance to support local merchants by buying local.

Get in the spirit and rethink holiday shopping. This year, buy gifts that reflect what is truly unique about the Lowcountry — it’s the creativity and industry of the people who live and work here.

Weekend tip: Saturday, Nov. 19, 10 am – 4 pm, The Local Artisans Market will be at South Windemere (think EarthFare in West Ashley). This is an awesome chance to find one-of-a-kind gifts made by local artists.
