Let's support our community, together!
Buying local has never been more important - how we spend our dollars will play a major role in shaping the world we eventually return to when the pandemic is finally over.
When we're all doing our best to survive, it's easy to turn to Amazon or big box retailers for those last minute gifts, household essentials, and self-care treats. It takes extra effort to uncover the best local gems ensuring your dollars are staying in the community - so we decided to do most of the detective work for you!
The AMA PDX Board curated a list of our favorite local makers and retailers. We think you'll love them too. We hope this guide helps you express your gratitude for the people making quarantine more bearable and that it adds to your sense of connection to our community. We encourage you to use this guide for yourself too - whether it's discovering a delicious new take-out option, a new wellness practice, or fresh ideas for date night when you're stuck at home, there's sure to be something to brighten everyone’s winter here.
Thank you for helping us keep the doors open for as many local businesses as possible!
