Top Ten Reasons To Buy Locally

Fact of the Week Add comments

I had a conversation the other day that sparked the topic of why people should buy locally. One of the topics we talked about was the price of gas/oil in just transporting goods from other states and countries.Shopping locally helps support the environment as well cut gas use, and keeps re-circulating money. You are putting money back into the place you live, versus putting it in let’s say…China.For a more extensive list of reasons, the site for San Francisco Locally Owned Merchants Association gives a top ten list of reasons why it’s better. This site is great so check it out and keep these thoughts in mind next time you want to go shopping.
