This Annual event began in 2013 and continues to grow each year as more businesses flock to Ballard’s bustling shopping and dining district. “In addition to the ‘giving’ portion of the post-Thanksgiving weekend, the Ballard merchant community is promoting a message to shop local and shop small. When small businesses thrive, communities thrive. When people support their local merchants and small businesses, more of their money stays in the community,” said Legh Burns, co-owner of Re-souL.

“’Shop local’ is not just a catch phrase, it’s a powerful tool by which communities can connect, prosper and empower others. Seattle has a strong, independent mindset and there is no better example than the businesses of Ballard coming together to spread the message,” said Burns.
