Local is More - Margaret River - Augusta

Local-is-More

Localism is an approach that emphasises thinking local first - is there a local business I can buy from instead of buying online? Can I buy local veggies, instead of flying in an out-of-season vegetable from elsewhere? When we think local and choose local, our community gets stronger, our businesses get healthier, and our environment is nurtured. 

The Local Is More Initiative provides the community with tips, tricks and most importantly, reasons to support and choose local first.
