Spending locally has ripple effects that contribute to Cortes Island's growth & health.

Support our small island economy by choosing local products and services, before going off-island to big-box stores or buying online. Local businesses are operated by our friends and neighbours.

And don't miss these local Christmas markets!

Local businesses do so much for our community, including:
- Provide jobs
- Donate to local causes & events
- Connect and support us socially
- Are more likely to buy local products and services
- Contribute to the growth & health of our community!
