Shopping locally mean purchasing things from stores that are run by residence of the area. They live here and buy things from others which makes the money stay local. Local delis, restaurants, etc.
When there are local businesses around the money goes into the community by taxes as we'll as when one purchases things or donates money to the local fire department. If you stay local the money will too, instead of buying supplies or food from a far you can get it from your local farmers market and they money spent will help grow more and more which becomes a cycle.
If you buy things locally you help the environment because the food doesn't have to travel long distance wasting gas and polluting the air. Also if the food is grown right with no pesticides it also is helpful. If we all just got our things next door it would be less costly and more fresh and nourishes your body.
