I received such a positive response to last year’s Local Holiday Shopping Guide, that it’s back again for 2021! I know this community loves to support local businesses, so keep reading for an updated list full of amazing entrepreneurs, shops, and services. Shop for the latest toy, a fitness membership, a gift card to a spa and more!
This Guide includes 125+ small businesses sorted by type, along with their location and website. Some businesses are featured partners and their listings include more details, plus EXCLUSIVE discounts for readers of The North Shore Moms.
I hope this list helps make your holiday shopping a little easier!
