WHY SHOP SMALL?

WHY SHOP SMALL?

SHOP SMALL. SHOP LOCAL.


On Small Business Saturday or not. 

Because lots of us small-ish folks are really trying to create the best possible product.

While supporting our families.

And making a difference for the environment, with our communities, and in the world.


🥂


At Mad Priest, we are so thankful for the great community in Chattanooga and we love being surrounded by so many other amazing small businesses here! Though we have grown the e-commerce side of our business and online following, the support of our Chattanooga folks is what got us through our first few years. Always and forever, #WeLoveCHA.
