Shop Local Holiday Gift Guide #shoplocalNB

It’s that time of year again when we have our lists and are checking them twice. We have a wonderful list of gift-giving ideas from local businesses and we hope to help you cross many items off your lists with these ideas.
We curate this guide to promote shopping local and supporting our communities, province and our region of Canada. This gift guide is sponsored by the businesses taking part, they apply using our call for submissions, we evaluate the application and promote the ones we have either personally shopped with or we believe in supporting them as they get started, like below with Treatlab. If a new to me business applies, I will try to shop from them or review their products before publishing the guide as well.

Support Local Gift Guide – Accepting Applications from Atlantic Canadian Businesses

by Ruth Ann

It’s that time of year again, we are putting together our Shop Local Gift Guide for the upcoming holiday season.

We are looking for businesses that were created here in Atlantic Canada, locally owned and unique. By shifting even 5% of our spending locally we can create a dramatic shift in the economic landscape here in Atlantic Canada. Through our 2019 Gift Guide, we hope to provide our readers with many local options to fulfill their gift-giving needs this season!

by Ruth Ann

This gift guide was sponsored by the businesses mentioned. Ireached out to select businesses in my community, where I shop and support. All opinions are my own.

Christmas is just a little over a month away, and this year we are going to be shopping local for much of our gift giving. The kids still want a few toys or video games, but this year we will be looking locally to purchase from our local retailers, artisans and service providers. Below we are highlighting a variety of gift giving options for Children, Teachers, Men and Women.
