It’s the thought that counts when it comes to gift giving – including where you buy it. This holiday season, give a gift that means just as much to the person you bought it from as it does the receiver by shopping local! Shop local this holiday season in Mount Vernon, Anacortes and Burlington. Here is the 2025 holiday markets and bazaars in Skagit County.
