These Entrepreneurs Chose to Locate in Northern New Hampshire to Grow Their Businesses
The mountain environment, outdoor recreational activities, and a slower pace of life were motivating factors in the decisions of a trio of entrepreneurs who have chosen northern New Hampshire as the place where they wanted to locate and grow their businesses. These enterprising business people strongly believe in supporting and improving the regional economy by hiring local people, participating in and giving back to their communities, and serving as an inspiration for other small companies to consider doing business at the northern end of the state.

The Granite State Has Numerous Independent Booksellers
Any time of year is a good time to stop by an independent bookstore in your community or visit one when you are travelling.
And with winter just around the corner, it's time to stock up on books to carry you through the cold months ahead. Books make great Christmas gifts, too!
Every bookstore has its specialties, from the ambiance of the setting to the shelves stocked with best sellers, local authors, outdoor guides, and more. Many carry other items like magazines, audiobooks, toys, greeting cards, calendars, and various gift items. Most have a chair or two where you can relax while you peruse a few volumes. It's easy to while away an hour or more in the friendly atmosphere of a bookstore!

The Great Debate: Live vs. Artificial Trees for the Holidays

Community in a Small Town
When I was a younger person, growing up in Small Town USA could feel so boring at times. I would have given anything to live near a shopping mall, just to have a place to hang out with my friends that wasn't one of our parents' basements. The mall was like an exclusive foreign club, and every other teenager I met from anywhere-but-here had a membership to it. I was desperate to be in that club; desperate to have that club nearby to even have the option to be in it at all. Back then, I truly never thought I'd want to stick around my hometown of 500 people—all who seemed to be my parents' age or older, too.
But then I grew up, and now I'm the age my parents were then, and I get it. In this phase of my life, I am often reminded why I love living here so much, and one main point of that is the closeness of the community. People show up for one another in times of need but also in times of celebration. I am sure that exists in other places, but it's hard to envision an entire city coming together for somebody in the same way a small town does.
