LOCAL PEOPLE

Beginning with Barrington’s in 2000, MRG has been a longtime supporter of local purveyors—not because it’s trendy, but because it’s better. This translates across all aspects of MRG and its dedication to support small businesses of all kinds, be it farmers, artisans, or designers—because a commitment to community is a commitment to the people who call it home.
