Shoppers Pick Up Gifts at Duluth Winter Village

DULUTH, Minn. — Duluth Loves Local hosted the 8th annual Duluth Winter Village at the DECC this weekend.

As Christmas gets closer each day, shoppers explored vendors from over 50 local businesses.

While many vendors were in Pioneer Hall, dozens of wooden cabins were also set up outside of the DECC, bringing a festive feel to the Northland.

One of the most popular attractions of the Winter Village was the mobile petting zoo from Cook’s Country Connection.

“Great opportunity to come do some Christmas shopping and come hang with our cute little critters. I enjoy it so much, we see the smiles on their faces, young and old alike, that’s what we live for,” said Lois Pajari, Owner of Cook’s County Connection.

Many local businesses were selling baked goods, ornaments, clothes, artwork, Christmas cards and more.

Making the Winter Village the perfect chance to pick up some Christmas gifts.
