Holiday Gift Guide for Shopping Small and Local in Boston

In honor of Small Business Saturday on November 25th and that the holiday shopping season is officially upon us, I've rounded up some local Boston area based gifts for everyone on your list. While it's tempting to take advantage of all the sales from national brands and stores, take the time to see what's available in our backyard here in and around Boston. There is such a strong local community of entrepreneurs!
