Market Day Making A Comeback Around Pasco

"Connecting the community is also the impetus behind the market/open mic/educational events held in Spring Hill by Locals I Know. A recent event at the VFW featured vendors such as baked goods “Crafted by Kiki,” candles and other goodies and crafts, as well as entertainment by local artists and a lot of schmoozing."

Empowering Local Businesses

The cost of acquiring new customers has increased by almost 60% over the past six years. Our mission is to help local businesses get found and make an economic impact by creating a community of people who actively pursue economic interests together to make a more significant impact than they could alone. In addition to booth space, Locals I Know vendors get support before, during, and after an event to generate traffic and sales.
