Sat 5th September 3pm - In Our Hands Family Farm

Bring along your bounty, abundance, harvest and participate in an alternative economy. One where cash is not allowed!! Notice the emphasis on “share” rather than “swap”. This means that if you have little or nothing to bring to offer, you’re not prevented from joining us.

Some suggestions for potential offerings: homegrown produce, seedlings, cuttings, homemade produce (preserves, baked goods etc), seeds (that are dried, processed and ready for storage / planting), homemade items, gifts of time / skills, useful items from your house you no longer need (not too much please - only in excellent working order)

We ask that everyone maintains the following, in order to generate & maintain the desired culture: - Give with the expectation of nothing in return - Receive with no feelings of owing - Take only what is fair, considering all the people present.

Arrive 15 mins early becuase we start on time!! You need to be setup in the space, and ready to introduce yourself and your goodies. Sharing happens quickly once we’re going so late attendees make things awkward. everything wraps up within about an hour. Please don’t leave the host with excess items. If your gifts don’t find a home, try to encourage others to use them, or please take them with you.

EVERYONE that attends feels like they provided less than they took. That is the beauty of abundance. Something you don’t need is someone else’s treasure - and then you get to appreciate something that is in excess within another household.

Do you have bulk amounts of organic waste that are otherwise going to landfill? Get in touch! I compost on a fairly large scale now, so I can accept lots of lawn clippings, shredded paper, coffee grinds and food waste.
