Open for business


My favorite signs are those made by hand, out of wood, and call attention to local folks carving out a niche for themselves. Whether it's fresh bread from a brick oven or lumber from a local owner-operated mill, we try to buy as much as possible from our local area. Buying locally is one of the most powerful things we, as consumers, can do to help our struggling economy. Signs like this one remind us that local entrepreneurs can ably satisfy our wants and needs.
