Local Business + Canadian Small Shops to Support this Holiday Season

It’s hard to believe Christmas is just around the corner. I wanted to put together a local gift guide to highlight some of my favourite local shops and businesses.

Some of my absolute favourite belongings are from small shops and makers who create the most beautiful and unique items. And I also love shopping at smaller local stores that have a lovely curated selection of items.

There are SO many amazing local businesses and incredible gift ideas right here in the Maritimes. I mostly focused on Nova Scotian based businesses.

Here are some of my favourite local small businesses and shops to support this holiday season. I tried to break it down into categories but many shops cross into several categories 🙂

Hopefully this list introduces you to a new local business or two; and also reminds you to support local!
