Welcome to Carteret Curated
by Mary Cheatham King Real Estate
A CELEBRATION OF LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES
Carteret Curated is an Instagram account dedicated to shining a light on local small businesses! Every year we host the People's Choice Awards, inviting our community to vote for their favorite businesses. The result? A comprehensive guide celebrating each of the nominated local small businesses that make our area so special.
IT'S HERE, Y'ALL! GET YOUR FREE PEOPLE'S CHOICE GUIDE
Every two years, we host a two-week long initiative where folks in the community get to vote for their favorite local small businesses in a variety of categories.
THE BEST PART? Every business that receives a vote gets featured in our annual People’s Choice Guide — a digital and printed resource that locals and visitors can refer to for small business recommendations.
