Thanksgiving is a holiday centered on gratitude and food, but it can also be expensive and stressful to spend hours in the kitchen whipping up a feast for friends and family. Luckily for residents in the area, many local businesses are offering to do the heavy lifting.

What better way to say thanks to the emergency workers in our area than to support local businesses while giving yourself an easy, stress-free season for the whole family?
