Small Business Saturday, an initiative dedicated to celebrating and supporting small and locally-owned businesses + the impact they have in our communities, is on Saturday, Nov. 30.

The day falls between two of the biggest shopping days of the year — Black Friday and Cyber Monday — and has become an annual shopping tradition for many since its establishment by American Express in 2010.

If you’re looking to join in on the festivities this year, check out our list of some of Molly + Sam's favorite small businesses in town — and some extra suggestions from our followers.

Poppy & Pomelo |City Editor Molly loves visiting this Woodland Triangle shop. From locally designed greeting cards to pet toys + puzzles — this place has everything. Pro tip: head to the back bar to make your own candle and grab a bev at Wick & Mortar.

Chaotic Good | Don't let the name fool you, Chaotic Good has the perfect calm + cozy atmosphere for everything from quiet bites to tabletop gaming. City Editor Sam loves to the affogato made with espresso and Graeter's ice cream while browsing the latest comics.
