Where to shop small in Jacksonville this holiday season

This post may contain affiliate links, which means I earn a small commission (at no cost to you) if you click or purchase from them. Thanks for supporting cityandsee (and my coffee habit ).

On instagram I asked all of you to give me a list of local shops in Jacksonville as well as small businesses online to shop at for the holidays. If there was ever a year to support local, this is the year. Additionally, it has been a hard time for so many of us, especially smaller companies. I am currently starting to shop at some of these, and hope this list is helpful to you as well as we try our best to support our communities!

Make sure to follow them on instagram and visit their websites if you aren’t local to Jax so you can still shop small this holiday season. I am sure I missed some, so leave your favorites in the comments.
