Barter Fair & Holiday Party

December 6, 1:00pm - 4:00pm
$5

Join us for our annual Barter Fair & Holiday Party! We’ll be returning to Old Stove Garden’s lovely event space again this year. This is a festive gathering of creative community members who make beautiful, tasty, useful things to barter(trade) for in an effort to showcase the power of creating and practicing sustainable gift giving. Are you a crafter, artist, or baker? Bring your handmade items to the barter fair. Not a crafter yourself but enjoy giving beautiful earth friendly handmade gifts? It is possible to shop with many of our barters as well.
The barter begins at 1:30 pm.
What do you have to offer? For ease of trading, items should be have a $5-10 or $15-20 value. Bigger items or services can be traded for multiples of the lower value items. Don’t have something to trade? Cash is also an acceptable option, or just come by to socialize and enjoy some holiday cheer!
So get crafting, creating, and making your items to barter.
In past years, barter items have included:
etched glass, hand-crafted scarves, knit hats and aprons
home-grown or foraged produce
home-made Julekake, pies, jams, smoked salts, granola, walnut liquor and other delectable goodies
seasonal candle holders, table toppers, swags
services such as pruning/garden consultations, yoga classes, sailboat cruises, tool repair, massage and more
A $5 donation helps cover event costs. Supporting members attend for free.
