This Saturday, the small businesses of Southold are encouraging you to shop local. The day is a collaboration between 26 of the small businesses, most on Main Road, hoping to get locals and travelers from further west to downtown Southold and #shopsmallsouthold. Free samples, raffles, giveaways and sales will be offered from 9 am to 2 p.m. in the various businesses. Here’s our list of some of our favorite items from some of the stores participating.
White Flower Farmhouse
Enter the dreamy, creamy interior of White Flower Farmhouse just to have a moment of peace. Take a little bit of that home by picking up some white dishware to compliment any home’s interior.

Main Boutique
This boutique may be new to the area, but they have plenty of summery finds to help you live out the final days of the season. Get yourself a flowy and light dress to live in before you are breaking out the fall outerwear.
53155 Main Rd, Southold
Arni Paperie
This store is full of gorgeous prints to fill your home with, but the hidden gems are the different activities and games they have. From puzzles to do-it-yourself embroidery kits, there’s a rainy day product for everyone. Our favorite is the paint by number kits, perfect for kids or adults, plus they double as decor once you’re done.

KK’s the Farm
Flowers from a local North Fork farm just look different from the bunches you can buy from the big stores. And by different, we mean prettier. Bring that wild beauty back to your home by picking up a bouquet of freshly picked flowers at KK’s the farm.

Wednesday’s Table
Feeling hungry? Us too. Stop into Wednesday’s Table for a mouthwatering breakfast sandwich piled high with chorizo, fried eggs, roasted red onions and pepper jack cheese (we are talking about the Chorizo and Egg sandwich, if you couldn’t tell). Or if it’s lunch time, switch gears for what might be the North Fork’s best Banh Mi sandwich.
