As our community gathers with family, friends, and neighbors this Memorial Day weekend, may we never lose sight of the sacrifice behind the freedoms we enjoy each day. Let us always appreciate those freedoms while honoring the people who made them possible.
Wishing everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day weekend!

Now entering the Little Local Box is Jacksonville photographer Beth Leitzke of Elizabeth Anne Photography!
Beth specializes in photography for creatives, makers, chefs, designers, and product-based businesses, with a focus on the process behind the work — not just the finished product. Her photographs feel thoughtful and deeply observant, capturing small details and moments that tell a story. As Beth puts it, she wants people to not just see what someone makes, but understand why what they make matters.
A small, hand-selected collection of Beth’s work - postcards, keychains and magnets - is now available in the Little Local Box at the Buckland House!
