With over ½ a million books to choose from, and the option to trade in your own used books for credit, no matter your age or favourite genre, there is a book for you! Whether a book is new or old it has a story to tell, and buying used is more sustainable in the long run, especially when considering you can bring back your book for credit and let someone else experience a new amazing read! Make sure to visit this fantastic local business located right in the heart of downtown Sudbury on Elm Street.
Vintage clothing is not only in style but also a much more sustainable way to shop! Kulta Vintage features a cultivated collection of everything from denim and graphic tees to dresses. This local business has survived a fire and is now located off Paris Street temporarily (August 2023). Supporting them not only promotes sustainability but also helps a local business grow!
For the love of vinyl! Cosmic Dave’s has everything from new albums to vintage hits and being located in the Donavan is surrounded by various other local businesses. Once you explore the vast collection of records, head next door to Beards to get a treat before going home and listening to them!
