Get your groceries from Ralph’s/Bayview Thriftway, the Co-ops, or the Farmers Market.

Go shopping at Archibald Sisters, Childhoods End Gallery, Wind-up Here, or The Sofa Gallery.

Dine at the Farmer’s Market, Budd Bay Cafe, Oyster House, Sorrento Restaurant, Mercato, Riccardo’s, Lemon Grass, Quality Burrito, or Dockside Bistro

For fun try an outing to the Percival Landing area where you can enjoy the market. Frolic and cool off in the water fountain followed by a great sandwich from Traditions Cafe, then stroll along Percival Landing and end up at Bayview Thriftway for gelato and a 5-star view of the bay from their upstairs dining area. Look for wine tastings at The Wine Loft, Check out live entertainment at Harlequin Productions, Olympia Little Theatre, and The Washington Center. Attend Music in the Park, take a tour of the state capitol, visit the Hands-on Children’s Museum, or Olympic Flight Museum.

We have all sorts of specialties stores in the South Sound. Patronizing locally-owned businesses keeps the economy kicking.

(GCI is proud to use local vendors wherever possible!)
