You’re not alone if you’re avoiding trips to your local grocery store for food right now.
Most grocers, shops, and restaurants are happy to provide curbside pickup. If you haven’t tried this option yet, it’s worth it. You simply order online or send an email, schedule a pickup time and they put your order in the trunk of your car.
Don’t want to leave the house? Then home delivery is for you. Here are some local businesses providing home delivery.
