Small Business Saturday
Small Business Saturday shopping in the Geneva Lakes Area
This Saturday is my favorite Christmas Shopping Day of the Year! My family and I love to support local businesses. Why wouldn’t you? You don’t have to limit Small Business shopping to just Saturday, but it’s great to spread the word that you’re helping support local businesses and hopefully others will too!! Before I get you started… make sure you buy your Christmas tree here:

Countryside Tree Farm in Walworth has the best Christmas trees! Not only that, but it is also a great family experience. You can cut down your own (or they have some ready). They also have a cute gift shop where they sell homemade gifts and Elk Antler dog chews. Make sure you check the events link on their website. There are weekends where they have Newfoundland dogs bring the tree to your car on a sled (Awwwwww), a weekend where Princess Elsa will be there, and a weekend that benefits the Lakeland Animal Shelter. Definitely NOT a Christmas Experience you want to miss out on!!!!
Here’s the list to get you started on all the great Christmas gifts (sorry if I missed any – there are tons of options):
