Though Buy Local Week is over, the holiday season is still upon us. We hope that you are still being conscious about your spending through the holidays and into the new year.

In these videos, Mickki Langston, Executive Director of Mile High Business Alliance gives us the lowdown about Buy Local Week and why it's important to the local economy and community. Big thanks go to the Flobots & the lovely folks at Fightwithtools.org for supporting our mission and for filming these two short videos.
