Small Business Saturday is a shopping holiday held during the Saturday after Thanksgiving. American Express created the event during the recession in 2010 to encourage people to shop small and bring more holiday shopping to small businesses.
One local business that is participating is Buxton’s Garden and Flower Shop located on 121 between Bethany and Sullivan. They started as a small roadside stand selling sweetcorn out of the back of a pick-up truck and have grown into a year round garden center.
Buxton’s will have their Christmas décor out in the shop and also will have two small businesses vendors setting up there on Saturday. Those businesses are Small Town Chic Boutique and Felt and Born.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
