Think Local Gifting this Holiday Season!

Want to give locally made gifts this year? Think ‘Island Good’ when Holiday Shopping!

The secret is out. Vancouver Island and the Rural Islands are a special part of the world. As Paul Gill, Owner of Island Good Sutra Sauces, said “everyone is very happy here and when you are making products and you’re happy that transpires into the goods.”

Who wouldn’t love a gift of local happiness! We are hearing it on the streets and seeing it on social media posts. More than ever, people are wanting to both shop and receive local and there are so many options… beauty products, candy, everything for the foodies, gift cards for restaurants serving Island food, wine and spirits, dryer balls, candles, cards, clothing, art, pet treats, mattresses…the list just keeps growing with over 240 Island Good businesses!

The Island Good website is a simple, headache-free way to source Island Good products. Use the directory to browse all the Island Good producers or search for Island Good retailers in your area. Also keep an eye out for the Island Good logo – helping you quickly identify goods made on Vancouver Island and the Rural Islands.
