The Chamber and the Springfield Food Co-op (2017 Business of the Year) are partnering with other area businesses in a new initiative to highlight the many benefits of shopping locally in our region. This cooperative effort is in its development phase, refining as it grows, and will be providing many opportunities throughout the year to celebrate our small business community! We encourage all area businesses that are interested to get involved to contact us for additional information – the more the merrier, because a rising tide floats all boats!
Our First Collective Event will be held on April 13th - Take a tour to several area stores for a community-wide Open House Day!
Springfield Food Co-op will be giving gift bags to the first 25 people who visit the store on the 13th, as well as a 5% discount to all shoppers! Sample some delicious local products and visit with vendors! Visit Willow Farm Pet Services for 10% on pet toys, a raffle and spring refreshments! At Woodbury Florist, you’ll save 20% in their gift shop on the 13th & 14th, and a visit to their beautiful greenhouse will offer rejuvenation along with extra savings on plants!
