Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.

If you’re all about eating and shopping locally, then this party’s for you. It’s Local First Arizona’s fourth annual Certified Local Fall Festival, happening this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Duck & Decanter (16th St. and Camelback).
There will be free food, shopping, live music, and kids’ activities, with a heavy presence of great food-centric businesses. Look for everything from high-style restaurants (Postino, Cowboy Ciao, Tapino, and more) to funky specialty shops (including The Pickle Lady from the downtown market, Schreiner’s Fine Sausage, and Pop the Soda Shop).
