Holiday Stops in Franklin, Athens, Ashtabula, Lucas, Cuyahoga, Holmes, and Warren Counties Are Bringing Cheer to Ohioans And Continuing Family Traditions

Every year in December, families across Ohio celebrate the holiday season by sharing gifts and traditions with their loved ones. From the local tree farm you visited with your family as a kid, to the neighborhood bakery that takes the special order when the entire family comes to town, these are places Ohioans never miss during the holiday season. It’s these businesses that embrace Ohio’s holiday spirit and make this time of year so special.

A love for the holidays can turn into an idea, and the Secretary of State’s office helps Ohio entrepreneurs turn that idea into a business. Keeping traditions going or starting your own is what makes local businesses special as well, with many existing family businesses passing down to the next generation, or entrepreneurs being inspired to create something altogether new.

Remember to support local business and maybe you can find that new family holiday tradition that will bring everyone together year after year in our great state.

Happy Holidays!
