Why Small Businesses Matter
Shop small, do big things for your community
Why Small Businesses Matter puts a spotlight on the local merchants who donate their time, talent, goods, and services for the betterment of our community. The shop local movement spreads virally as local businesses who are “tagged” have the opportunity to share their story!

What is your best-selling product/service?
Customers come to us because we carry items you truly cannot find anywhere else - like slip-pit Blenheim apricots, pure elderberry juice, and unique imported items. We're always happy to place a special order, too! In addition to specialty products, we are a full grocery store with all the essentials. Our butcher cuts meats on-site, we bake our pies and other desserts on-site, and we also have award-winning gourmet-to-go.
How many local businesses do you use to support your business (products and services) and can you name them?
So many! Chickens from Millstone Farm in Wilton, produce from Silverman's farm and more, Connecticut-grown cranberries during the holidays, Red Bee Honey from Weston, Maya Gluten Free baking mixes from Darien, Liv Granola...the list goes on!Have you reimagined your small business?
