7 Amazing Local Black Owned Businesses To Support in August
Here in Liberty County, diversity isn’t just something we talk about, but it’s something we live and celebrate every day. Our community is proud to represent a melting pot of cultures, backgrounds and voices. Our diversity is primarily thanks to Fort Stewart, the largest Army installation on the eastern side of the Mississippi River. August is recognized as Black Owned Business Month a time dedicated to celebrating African American entrepreneurs. Whether it’s flavorful food, handcrafted self-care products, professional services or home essentials, black owned businesses make up a thriving part of our local economy.
We’re shining a spotlight on just a few of these incredible entrepreneurs so you can support them, shop locally, and experience all they have to offer!
