Over the past few weeks as we've headed into the holiday season, we asked you to share with us your favourite small businesses and local treasures! This list is 100% curated by you, all over the country, thats freakin' awesome.
Being a small biz ourselves, we get the hustle, heart, and soul that goes into making small business happen, and even more so, understand the feeling we get when people get behind you and your mission! It is like nothing I can describe!
If you're stuggling with what to buy or where to buy it this Christmas, let's go on a journey together.
Join us in celebrating the authentic small businesses that make our neighbourhoods shine a little brighter during the holidays. 🎁✨
