Season’s greetings and sustainable shopping

This holiday season, be sure to shop locally and sustainably! Follow these Chamber tips to help your local community and the earth as a whole.

• Make your own gifts from reusable materials, such as knitting or baking.
• Donate to a non-profit or charity, and put the donation in your gift recipient’s name.
• Buy pre-owned goods from a charitable organization to reuse perfectly good items.
• Give a beautiful floral arrangement or other plant: a truly green gift!
• Give the gift of time by visiting a local park, museum or art gallery with a loved one.
• Surprise a loved-one with a seasonal getaway at a great hotel. If you’re planning on heading up-island, ensure your vehicle is winter-ready by visiting a local automotive centre.
