What is Going Local?

"Going local does not mean walling off the outside world. It means nurturing locally-owned businesses which use local resources sustainably, employ local workers at decent wages, and serve primarily local consumers."

Michael H. Shuman, Author of the book Going Local

Support locally-owned businesses

If you are are concerned about strengthening the quality of life in Fresno's neighborhoods and the economic vitality of the greater Fresno area, you need to consider the positive impact you have when you buy from independent, locally owned businesses. Voting with your dollars does make a difference, and it is a positive step towards connecting with your community, reducing your impact on the earth, and becoming a more engaged citizen.
