#ShopWomenOwned in October

March is Women’s History Month! As you know, epiphany studios is a women owned business (if not, read all about it in this blog post) and we love to support our fellow women.

All month long, WBENC is campaigning to get people to support and open their wallets for women owned businesses. We though this was the perfect time to share some of the amazing local businesses owned by amazing women we know and love.

And don’t forget to use the hashtag #BuyWomenOwned when you post about all the wonderful businesses you’ve supported.
