Behind the Scenes

It’s that time of year where more and more people are starting to gear up for holiday shopping. That is why we have partnered with Bold Promotions​ to create the Hometown Holiday Shopping Guide!

This is our second year creating the guide and our goal is to provide a list of local small & medium businesses and artisans as an option when you’re doing your shopping. By buying local, you help support the community!

The businesses and artists mentioned on the list were sent to us by our followers on our social channels so thank you for the suggestions! And thank you Bold Promotions for supporting this project! If you want to read the list, go to moosemediafsj.ca/guide
