How to Support Food and Drink Businesses in Your Local Community

Support local food and drink businesses during the coronavirus crisis. — *Photo Credit: Jesse Brantman for Edible Northeast Florida*

As concerns over COVID-19 continue to mount, Edible publishers throughout the United States and Canada are mobilizing in nearly every market we serve to support food and drink businesses by providing up-to-date information on how local community members can help. There’s never been a more critical time to support small business in ways that feel comfortable and safe for you and your family. For some, this can be as simple as the purchase of a gift card for future use. For others, it will mean take-out or delivery of goods and provisions. Whatever you choose, every effort counts.

Stay up to date on information for your local community by signing up for the Edible e-newsletters produced in your region today.
