Back in April when New Jersey was advised to Stay at Home, I wanted to figure out a way to add value to our beautiful community and with the help of local bad a$$ Mom and photographer, Audrey Blake, we were able to photograph 25+ local businesses in one image. It was a fun project and I think it's time to revisit! Take a look thru all of the below local businesses and shop local and shop small when possible. Most are still offering curbside, some deliver, and if you can't make a purchase, a Like, Follow or comment on social media means more than you know.
Sadly, a few of the businesses have shut their doors amidst these unprecedented times and plenty are still taking it day by day and struggling.
together we included 25+ local businesses that are thankful for the community's continued support |
