Shopping and buying local MATTERS! RESOLVE to help make a difference in your community by supporting local businesses and buying LOCAL!

Keeping more of our hard-earned money right here in our local community helps make our economy grow, supports vibrant towns and villages, and helps create jobs. Studies show that as much as 68 cents of every dollar you spend locally stays right here--helping to strengthen and grow our communities, and protecting local jobs.

 WHY IT MATTERS

* Shopping and buying locally helps protect and create jobs in our community.

* It supports local entrepreneurs.
