Looking to shop local for the holidays? Consider heading to Ms. Mint's 2nd Annual Local and Fair Trade Holiday Bazaar.

Ms. Mint's Kate Gross has put together a wide range of local crafts makers, artists, food and drink vendors and others, all offering last-minute gifts with a local bent. The list of vendors reads like a who's who of Chicagoist favorites: Burton's Maple Syrup; Katherine Anne Confections; Franks 'N Dawgs; A La Card; River Valley Kitchens; and Jo Snow Syrups are just some of the participating vendors.

Ms. Mint's 2nd Annual Local and Fair Trade Holiday Bazaar; 3-8 p.m. Dec. 16; 11-6 p.m. Dec. 17 at Grossinger City Autoplex (1530 N. Dayton St.).
