We have written about the 3/50 Project before, but I wanted to make sure everyone remembers how important it is to support independently owned shops. The idea behind this wonderful organization is to choose three independent shops that you would be sad to see close and spend $50 in them each month. Think about what makes these (ours!) stores unique and what would happen if they disappeared (sadly this is happening all across the country). Before you know it, we will be surrounded by Big Box/Chain Stores, stripping us of the local flavor, but also pulling much needed money from our own communities. Read more about this exciting movement on their website- The 3/50 Project and join in now! Shop Independent stores!!
