Give a little local love this Valentine's Day!

Are you shopping local for your sweetheart? Central Saanich’s Shop Local campaign encourages residents to tag their purchase on social media to help spread the love.

Central Saanich is doing some match-making of it’s own and connecting locals to businesses.

Central Saanich’s Shop Local campaign encourages residents to tag their purchase on social media to help spread the love. When shopping locally, snap a photo and share on social media with the hashtag “#ShopCSaan”. Local businesses offer an array of unique and fun finds—from dinner out (or to go!), treats and flowers to gift cards for shopping or services.

Are you a local business? Use the hashtag “#ShopCSaan” in your social media posts promoting Valentine’s products and services to get more profile until February 14, 2022. The District of Central Saanich has many resources to support businesses in recovery. Timely workshops, links to funding and support resources, and more are available at LetsTalkCentralSaanich.ca/Economic-Recovery.

Another special Valentine’s gift is to share out the special shopping experience, products, and services to friends and family that live outside the District. Our farms, village neighborhoods, and tourism places are unique are memorable, world-class experiences. Our local businesses make Central Saanich special and give so much to the community are important hosts to visitors. This is a challenging time for many businesses and showing them some love is something we can all do any time of the year.
