Spreading Vermont Cheer for the Holidays: Why Shopping Local with Myti Matters More Than Ever
By: Bill Calfee, Founder and Chief Visionary Officer, Myti
It snowed at my house this morning! Soon the Green Mountains will transform into a winter wonderland, and Vermont's magic will be everywhere—especially in our small towns, where warmth radiates from every local storefront. Behind each shop lies a story of passion and craftsmanship, carefully preserved by the artisans, family-owned brands, and small businesses that call Vermont home. As we approach the holiday season, let's share this magic with our loved ones by shopping locally—and Myti is here to make it easy.
Why Shopping Local Matters This Holiday Season
Choosing local isn’t just about finding something unique; it’s an investment in Vermont’s communities and a way of life. When we buy from Vermont brands, we’re supporting families, fueling our small-town economies, and preserving a tradition of quality and care that big-box stores and legacy online giants, like Amazon, simply can’t replicate. Each purchase strengthens the connections that keep Vermont thriving. But shopping locally isn’t only meaningful to Vermonters—it’s a way to share a piece of this special place with others, too.
