#carryoutWednesday is now trending on social media. It’s a new idea to help support local restaurants during this time.

With many people opting to stay out of the public right now, many of our local businesses are going to take a hit. To support them, we can place pickup or delivery orders from our favorite local restaurants today (and every day).

We searched restaurants’ social media pages to come up with a list of places now offering curbside pick-up or those who have temporarily closed their dining rooms to only offer to-go orders and delivery orders. We know this list doesn’t include everyone, so reply and let us know local restaurants we missed and we’ll update our list.

Front entrance of a house decorated for Halloween, featuring a large wooden door framed by two stone columns with giant black spiders hanging from them. A skeleton stands to the left of the doorway, and piles of colorful pumpkins — orange, white, and green — are arranged on both sides of the brick walkway. A festive wreath and smaller Halloween decorations complete the spooky, autumn-themed display under a cloudy sky.
