Shop Local and

This season and all year long, choosing to shop local in Humboldt helps our small businesses grow and keeps our community strong.

The City of Eureka is proud to partner with Choose Humboldt, a countywide campaign celebrating the makers, shops and gathering places that make Humboldt special. Together with Humboldt Made and partners across the county, we are encouraging residents and visitors to shop, dine, stay and experience Humboldt in ways that uplift our local economy.

As part of the campaign, the Shop Humboldt Digital Passport Challenge invites you to explore local businesses in a new way. The free VibeMap powered passport lets you collect points simply by checking in around the county, posting photos or offering feedback about your visits. The more you participate, the more points you earn toward special badges and prizes! It is a fun, simple way to discover Humboldt’s small businesses and show them your support.

When we choose to spend our dollars locally, we help keep money circulating close to home, supporting jobs, creativity and the unique character of our neighborhoods. Every purchase matters.
