With the start of a new year comes a time of reflection, resolutions, and new goals. With so many businesses affected this past year by the ongoing pandemic, we believe a great goal to set for 2021 is to support local. Many stores, shops, and restaurants are open for business, curbside pickup, and online ordering. We have curated a list below of some of our agent’s favorite local shops around the Tri-Valley and Fremont area.
Home Decor
The start of the year can be a perfect time for a home refresh. It can feel easy to shop for home goods at big-box stores such as Walmart, and online at Amazon. However, you can find so many high quality, unique, and even handcrafted home decor items at local shops instead. Many of these stores are open for curbside pickup and delivery as well.
