With the holiday season in tow, we’re sure it seems like shopping local is a chore but we promise it’s worth the extra few miles on the car. TABLE Magazine encourages you to shop local not just on the upcoming Small Business Saturday but year-round. The small businesses owned by our neighbors do more than sell goods and services. They add vibrant life to our neighborhoods and to our entire region. Their presence brings our Main Streets alive, and the long-lasting, personal relationships they foster create a culture of positivity and belonging. To get you started on your local shopping adventure, check out these Mount Lebanon businesses
