Small Business Saturday - Nov. 27th

Show Your Support at Your Local Businesses

By Elisa Posniack, Macaroni Kid -North West Bergen County Publisher November 23, 2021

Support your local businesses - come out on Saturday, November 27th and shop & eat local!



Trademarked by the American Express Corporation in 2010, Small Business Saturday is now an annual tradition. It is a special day to honor and support your local businesses of all types. Do you have a favorite restaurant, a local florist or craft store? Realizing it is often easier to shop a big box store is what makes it extra special to have a day to give extra support to your local/neighborhood businesses.


Some of my favorite local retailers and businesses in NW Bergen County include:

The Mahwah Library

While I love all libraries and there are so many unique features in each NW Bergen county library location, one of my favorite local libraries has to be the Mahwah Library. 

Located at 100 Ridge Road in Mahwah, NJ, the Mahwah library has so many unique childrens events, crafts and great places to read and relax. Spacious and super friendly staff. They must have the most beautiful staircase I have ever scene in a library. Please visit: https://www.mahwahlibrary.org/
