Who doesn 19t love a three-day weekend? Since 1875, New South Wales has enjoyed one on its New South Wales Bank Holiday each first Monday of August. The origins of the day lie in British Rule; bank employees were given an extended weekend as compensation for putting in extra hours on June 30. (They needed that time to close balance sheets.) Regardless of the day 19s origins, let 19s all give thanks for three day weekends 14the savior of nine-to-fivers around the world.

Big Box stores like Walmart and Target are certainly convenient, offering so much of the things we need in one place, and the prices they offer can 19t be beat. However, there is a section of our local commerce that brings us a local flavor, a taste of home, and makes sure that your purchases really support your local community.

Independent Retailers are our neighbors, friends, and family, whether they 19re running the corner store providing gas to keep us on the move, or local craftsman who bring us the best in cheeses and handcrafted furniture, Independent Retailer Month reminds you to help support them to support your community.

History of Independent Retailer Month

Independent Retailer Month was established by Clare Rayner, known throughout the world as 1CThe Retail Champion 1D to help get local communities working with their local retailers to help keep local money local. There 19s been a lot of loss of culture and community throughout the years as big box companies move in and start driving the smaller companies out of business. Without being able to deal in the sheer variety of products and services, and to purchase in the sheer quantities they do and thus getting better prices, the independent retailers are in a significant amount of trouble.

The only way for them to survive is with the support of their community, and the loyalty of these people to their local businesses. Since the creation of Independent Retailer Month, millions of dollar in revenue have been returned to local businesses as people start shopping locally and discovering the hometown feel you get from shopping with your friends and neighbors.

Independent Retailer Month is your opportunity to get in and support your local community, the dream of small business is still alive and well, even with big box stores trying to squash it out of existence.

How to Celebrate Independent Retailer Month

There 19s a few ways to celebrate independent retailer month, but the most prominent is getting out there and shopping at local stores and farmers markets. Don 19t buy honey from some distant apiary when you can pick it up from your local beekeeper and know that it 19s all been born and bred locally.

Milk doesn 19t get much fresher than when its purchased from the dairy down the street, and you know that when you buy from a local store, all of that money stays in the community helping to keep the local flavor alive.

We sit each day in cubicles and under flickering lights, staring at screens that shimmer with a digital world, and every day we lose ourselves a little bit to the cold light of electron pathways.

Children dive into games, experiencing narratives created by dreamers of other worlds, without ever learning to open their minds and find the narrative within themselves.

International Mud Month was created to remind us that outside, away from the geometrical perfection of man 19s world, lay the organized chaos of mother nature 19s realm, and the importance of maintaining our connection to it.

History of International Mud Month

In 2009 the children of Bold Park Community School joined forces with the boys of the Nepalese Panchkhal orphanage to celebrate the visceral and primal connection we all share with Earth and the outdoors.

Bold Park used this opportunity to raise funds to help support the less fortunate children of Nepal. Since that fateful beginning, schools, families, and ECE centers from all over the world have worked together to promote the idea that we all need to play in the mud sometimes, just to remember what it means to be human.

In 2015 it was decided that one day of playing in the mud simply wasn 19t sufficient to ground us after a year of being lost in the technological glitz and digital glamour of our modern world, and so it was changed from 1CInternational Mud Day 1D to 1CInternational Mud Month 1D, and thus the celebration continued!

It 19s not all about our personal connection with the Earth, but also about how we as humans connect to one another, and the relationships we form throughout our lives. Like any two ponds of mud, no two humans are exactly alike, and so International Mud Month encourages us to share that diversity and celebrate it!

How to Celebrate International Mud Month

First off, get ye to the mountains and fields! Out among the blooming flowers and down into the flowing creeks. Head out over the airy mountain, and through the wooded glen, and get muddy up to your neck in search of fairy dens!

Then start organizing with others to create fund-raisers centered on remembering that we were all wild once, and we should not let the digital world tame us! Get out there and play in the mud!
