“Shop local” doesn’t have to mean getting in the car: The internet abounds with items made by talented artists and craftspeople in their homes, garages and back yards. Following is a list of talented folks in and around Athens County, some who sell exclusively online and some whose work can be found in local stores. In Athens, you can find locally made goods at Hyacinth Bean Florist, Passion Works Studio, White's Mill and Kindred Market; in Nelsonville, check Starbrick Gallery and the New Leaf Emporium.

Some artisans will have items for sale at the Athens Holiday Markets, to be held 9 a.m.–noon on the first three Saturdays in December at the Market on State.

This list is not exhaustive! To add a local artisan, email corinne@athensnews.com with "local shopping" in the subject line.
