Any side hustle, labour of love, or small independent business. This includes but not limited to
Growers and producers not involved in industrial agriculture including urban microgreens and mushrooms, bakers, preserves and everybody in between.

This is the community linking local people with local businesses. The place for communities to stand together and easily make a real positive change for their communities and environment.
Anyone who wants to see community profits remain in their communities.
Its for people who would rather purchase something made or grown with love over the mass produced goods and produce.
For anyone who believes the world and society would be better with many small independent shops giving real opportunities to real people over corporate chains who funnel profits to offshore tax havens and hedge funds in return for zero hour contracts and automated checkouts.
For people with the ideals and consciousness of shopping small local and fresh however don’t actually have the time and energy to travel the markets or battle the parking for their highstreets.
For the small farm or side hustle who is struggling for visibility and sales, whos budget and margins don’t allow for advertising the large corporates do.
3. Who can't join
We believe that every chain coffee shop, newsagent or brewery owned pub on your high street is unfair competition and one less opportunity for a mum and dad start up.
Every pesticide ridden and soggy bagged salad sold in the supermarket – imported from god knows where – is one less sale to your local urban farmer, coop or farm.
For very trinket, gift, cosmetic or homeware purchased from a global e commerce site results in our fantastic and skilled local artisans and crafters remaining in relative obscurity.
So to the chains stores and corporations who take small business opportunities from local families and the profits out of communities, to those of you involved in industrial agriculture – And to anyone else monopolising or dominating the little guy.
You are not welcome here and please stay away.
4. Will this replace my website
No if anything your subscription with us will open another revenue stream, boost your online presence and help you thrive. With back links to your website and socials it will also boost your SEO and drive more customers your way.
5. How will local green stuff promote my business
When we rank highly on search engines so do you. You are free to promote yourself by uploading an unlimited number of blog posts driving traffic to your shop, website and socials. We promote you through social media shoutouts, newsletter mentions, homepage features and links to your shop in relevant links in blogs we create and upload. We want you to thrive. Furthermore when you recommend a ‘local hero’ – for example a restaurant or grocers using purchasing your fresh produce, your shop will be featured prominently on their listing.

We are always happy to support you with any questions or assistance you may need.
7. Can I customise my listing?
Yes please. Brand it, make it authentic and stand out from the crowd. Upload images, create variants, offer discounts and coupons and much much more
8. What makes lgs different
We care and we and want to offer solutions.
We see the high street (small independent businesses) being swallowed up and outcompeted by supermarkets and larger chains. We see smaller family farms and growers uncompetitive to global industrialised agriculture and our fantastic local artisans, crafters and creatives drowned in the noise of mass produced international ecommerce. We understand that as a society we are generally too busy, too stressed and too rushed to take the time to find and shop many separate and individual independent businesses habitually.
We want to change this tide.
9. Can I cancel my subscription?
Absolutely. Anytime you like before the end of the current billing cycle.
10. How do I get notified of a sale and paid?
Once you make a sale on Local Green Stuff, the order details can be found on your dashboard. We will also email the address provided with all the details too!
Payments to your bank account will be automatic through our secure payment provider stripe (stripe.com)
