A Gifting Guide of Local, Diverse-Owned Small Businesses
Enjoy these gift suggestions, made by community members in NWA!
Our Northwest Arkansas region is thriving because of the diverse communities that live and work here, and the holidays are a great time to share and celebrate our local businesses in a special way. Holiday shopping may be extra tricky this year due to supply chain challenges so what better way to shop with intention than to support local, diverse-owned, and inclusive-minded businesses. In a recent survey, we asked our readers to share their favorite diverse-owned, small business for holiday shopping, why they love those businesses and some unique gift giving ideas. If you have additional ideas of what we should include, please let us know.
