## What is The Maker's Guide?

The birth of The Maker's Guide came from the creative team behind Trading Post based in locations across the United States.  

With so many visitors from around the world coming through our retail spaces asking us where else to go, what to do, what to see - we wanted to give our community answers to their questions that were based on the community itself. The Maker's Guide is for the people, by the people where good taste can be trusted!

Just like the curation of our different experiences (brick & mortar or pop-up) everything is highly curated and cared for. We are handpicking towns/villages/cities across the world that reflect our values around quality, sustainability and kindness - whether it be down-home vibes or more of an enriched aesthetic - you can count on it being a place our community loves authentically.  

Within the app, you will find lifestyle categories for the following categories in each hand picked city:
• Hotels & Hospitality 
• Food & Beverage
• Bar & Nightlife 
• Retail & Shopping 
• Provisions, Beer & Wine
• Culture & Experience 
• Beauty & Wellness 

Once you identify where you are interested in exploring you will be directed to the name and address of the location chosen.  

Thank you for using The Maker's Guide. Travel Guides curated by local creatives. 

ALWAYS FREE. Easy to use.
