There are a ton of great opportunities to get out and support local in the week ahead. Market Mafia is your resource for finding handcraft events and pop-up markets throughout Greater Tampa Bay, Jacksonville and Miami.

This week we're chatting about the importance of choosing small first this holiday season. We suggest 3 ways to think local: visit brick and mortars that carry maker goods, #HitTheMarket at a local market event, or use a small business directory to find businesses and service providers in the area. We list options for all of these within the episode!

This episode originally aired on Radio St. Pete on November 22, 2019.

Find a full list of upcoming makers markets by visiting our interactive calendar at marketmafia.com; filter and find events matching your interests. Like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram @themarketmafia and be sure to share your handmade finds with us by using the #HitTheMarket! Thanks for supporting local.
