One of the things that sets Acadiana apart from other communities is our unique network of small businesses. This holiday season, it’s our job to shop local and support our neighbors on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday. When we choose to #ShopSmall, we're making an investment in the places and people that make Acadiana so special. So this season, let's make an effort to #ShopSmallEveryDay!
