Introducing the Find It Grey Bruce Local Gift Guide
December 10, 2008
FindItGreyBruce.com is excited to announce a good head start on our 2009 local gift guide. With the holiday season upon us we figured we may as well put a rush on things to get the gift guide underway. The basic idea – the gift guide is a web/email/and limited print run publication which aims to connect area shoppers with local businesses/entrepreneurs/crafters/makers. We are seeing a steady increase in demand for homemade and handmade products, as well as locally provided services as gift options. There are numerous reasons to support a local gift economy. Buying local keeps money circulating in the local economy, reduces the amount of goods imported (and $ exported), and can help to minimize waste, toxic materials and our overall carbon footprint…
All of us here at FindItGreyBruce.com live, work and play here, so we want to promote all the great people who provide these homemade, handmade, services to us… right here at home in Grey Bruce. Whether you teach a musical instrument (guitar, piano, clarinet… whatever…), teach folks how to knit or sell handmade knitted products, babysit, homemade baking, whatever your specialty is… we’re talking about you!
Area shoppers can consult the local gift guide in a number of locations; online at www.finditgreybruce.com, as a part of the FindItGreyBruce.com email newsletter or in print at various area restaurants and local merchants.
