Living Local is putting the focus back on community. In a world of chains and brand names, Living Local highlights local events, unique businesses, and stunning locations right here in Southern Ontario. From a maple syrup farm in Niagara, to axe throwing in Burlington, Living Local wants to show viewers all there is to do in the communities around them. Living Local lets the community tell the story.
Instead of a reporter giving information through voice-overs, viewers hear from owners and staff to learn all about these places. To keep things authentic, every story features tons of first-hand, and often hilarious, interviews from patrons and event-goers. In the age of smart phones and streaming, Living Local is here to show viewers exciting events and activities they can check out, and give them a desire to get out and see what’s going on in their own communities.
