The alliance that makes up the membership of LLF consists of local-independent business owners, farmers, community members, non-profit organizations, artists and all those interested in creating and maintaining a strong resilient local economy.  By joining as a member of LLF you are committing to sourcing as many goods and services locally as possible.  You realize that by doing so you are keeping more money right here in our own community and creating more jobs, a stronger tax base and a place you are proud to call home.  No movement for change starts at the top and no change can occur without the voices, commitment and energy of many people pushing it forward.

Our job is to help you build the relationships that stick - the ones that make your business better and that are mutually beneficial.  While we can't make you successful, we can create the environment to help you succeed.  Won't you join us?
