Trade your extra fruits & veggies, herbs, preserves, baked goods & crafts with your neighbors, and leave with plenty of new and exciting things to try & enjoy. Only have a few things to share, or nothing at all? That's OK! Creative & non-material barters & freebies are always a possibility here.

-Fruits & veggies from your gardens
-Preserves and ferments (sauerkraut, jam, etc.)
-Baked goods
-Maple syrup or honey
-Homemade cheese, yogurt, butter
-Dried herbs, tinctures, or salves
-Flowers, fibers, seeds, & crafts would all be fun swapping items
