We've only lived here for nearly 2 years but have found ourselves being pulled by some magnetic force towards these local (Lunenburg, N.S.) businesses, again and again, so we wanted to share with you our favourite places to go to when in Lunenburg, N.S...

It's really not magnetism at all but rather wonderful owner's that care deeply about the products they offer and the community they represent and well, the really great products they offer!

First we have .ns great selection of records with a first class owner, can't say enough about this family run business, go buy some music!

Secondly The folks offer wonderful quality homemade food to go or to enjoy in-house, can't get enough of their Salmon Benny, yum...

The third business doesn't need any help whatsoever, conveniently located next to .ns their baked goods are 2nd to none. If you can't decide what to choose, why not try one of each We did and so glad we did.

The fourth business we wanted to focus on is that offer such a great selection of crafting supplies, yarn and super helpful employees! They are moving but don't fret, they're not moving far.

This post isn't about excluding businesses that haven't been included but rather to bring attention to our favourite businesses that have been discovered during the brief period of time that we've spent in Picturesque Nova Scotia.
