Start your holiday shopping at locally owned stores during Small Business Saturday.
Small Business Saturday is on Nov. 24 this year, two days after Thanksgiving. It is a day for everyone to support the small businesses that their community thrives on. American Express founded the day in 2010 to help small businesses get exposure during the holiday season, when they might be otherwise overlooked. With retailers buzzing around the holidays, it is important to support local small businesses that rely on their neighbors in order to continue prospering and building the local economy in Arlington. Local small businesses like Isis Parenting, for instance, do more than just sell goods. "We're trying to educate local families on having and raising healthy babies," Isis' assistant manager, Kerri Friedlaender, said Wednesday. "Our …

The bakery will also be 95 percent dairy free, and its goods will contain no tree nuts, except coconut.
A gluten/wheat free bakery is moving into the old Barismo spot in East Arlington. Something Sweet Without Wheat could open at 169 Mass. Ave. as soon as Saturday, Dec. 1, according to Teresa Fiore, who will manage the shop. “That’s our goal,” she said recently. “We’d like to be a part of East Arlington First Lights.” The family owned and operated specialty bakery, which was started by two Stoneham sisters just over two years ago, is based out of a commercial kitchen on 6th Road in Woburn. Up until now, the bakery mostly wholesaled its goods to local markets and food stores or sold them by phone or online. The East Arlington location will be the bakery's first retail-only operation. “We’re super excited,” Fiore said. “Arlington just seems …

The transition is expected to be completed sometime this month.
Barismo, the tiny East Arlington coffee shop known for its high-quality brews, is moving two doors down to a bigger location, according to its blog. The shop’s new spot at 171 Massachusetts Ave. is just a laundromat away from its current digs (169 Massachusetts Ave.) and will be large enough to handle seating, according to the post. The transition is expected to be completed sometime this month. Barismo has been looking to expand for a few years, and this opportunity seemed like the “perfect solution to years of cramped growth in [the] current space,” according to the post. The new space will be divided into two sections: a roasting section and a small coffee bar – with seating and some sweets. Read more details on the move on Barismo’s …
