The “Buy Local, Buy Greene” campaign is a local effort to build awareness regarding the importance of supporting locally owned businesses. Studies show that $100 spent at a local business generates $68 in revenue for the local community, versus only $43 in revenue for that same amount spent at chain stores. To date, 35 retailers and nearly 100 consumers have made the pledge. Join the local Greene County effort at: http://www.waynesburgpa.org/buylocal.html. For more information or to schedule a speaker for your group, call Buy Local, Buy Greene chairwoman Lindsey Biddle at 724-627-9151.
