Supporting your favorite local shops and artisans is now easier than ever thanks to a new website called—what else?—Support Local.
The online directory was created by Prism Creative Group, the same people behind the Miami Flea, and features more than 100 South Florida-based businesses, including a number of the makers that participate in the monthly flea market. In addition to listing vendors like the Tipsy Gardener, Support Local highlights locally owned businesses in the community, from co-working spaces to restaurants to bars.
There are perks in it for users, too. Dining at Mina's Mediterraneo? Mention Support Local and receive your second order of dip free. Other specials include a free (daily!) cocktail at 27 Restaurant & Bar and a basket of mini empanadas at The Anderson.
The directory is expected to triple by March, and so will the benefits of supporting your favorite homegrown spots.
