Strong communities try to retain local money in the local economy. But understanding where the money we spend ends up is not always easy. Local businesspeople open our conversation by describing where money spent in local stores goes and how residents can maximize their local spending. Audience members can also describe difficulties they face in trying to keep dollars local and what businesses might do to help.
Speakers
Peter Robinson ~ Roy’s Market
Jen Risely ~ Monadnock Buy Local
Dominique Cassie ~ Terrapin Glassblowing Studio
Crista Tenney-Salamy ~ Tenney Farm
Community Conversations is a series that explores many of the issues impacting our communities. A partnership between the Monadnock Center for History and Culture and the Monadnock Ledger-Transcript, each Conversation features local experts talking about challenges faced by our communities. Some issues are global in nature, but each conversation is designed to examine the topic from a local perspective. The program provides residents with the opportunity to learn more about key issues impacting their communities, to engage in a civil dialog with speakers and with each other, and to come away with a sense that there are things that individuals and communities can do to foster change and improvement.
