Supporting local businesses and promoting the local economy is an important part of the Sustainable Times’ mission and focus. I therefore welcome the very existence of Dane Buy Local as an invaluable contribution to those same goals. On a more practical level Dane Buy Local has proven to be a great resource for the Sustainable Times, from editorial content to helping establish professional relationships with many local businesses. If Dane Buy Local didn’t exist already, it would have to be created urgently. |
