Buy Close By, Preserve Community

Our community is the group of people we share the most in common with, next to our family and friends. They are the people we shop with, work with, meet for dinner, attend concerts with, as well as share the weather, the air we breathe, and the water we drink. Our taxes fund the same services and community projects that we enjoy. Our community is our tribe, and includes our land, its people, and the resources we must share in order to survive and thrive here. Our community is our past and our future home, and our actions shape it every day.
