Hello Neighbors!
It's time for one of my favorite events of the season! Did you have a bumper crop of potatoes this year, but never got around to making any jam? Do you long for a chance to try someone else's home-grown handiwork or would like some more variety on your pantry shelf? Come and participate in the 8th Annual Harvest Barter Fair hosted by the Swap Sisters. On Sunday November 7th we'll be swapping the season's bounty at Lakeview Elementary in Greensboro from 2-4pm.
Bring items that you have grown, preserved, baked, or raised to swap with neighbors. Items are generally swapped on a one for one basis so it can be helpful to bring items with an estimated value of $5, or $5 increments. (For example: a quart of canned tomatoes, a jar of jelly, a bag of tasty baked goods, a large winter squash, a pound of frozen meat, a bag of tea or other herbal product, tubers or house plants, etc.) But folks have gotten creative in the past and made 3 way swaps so everyone ends up happy. Please label your items with ingredients. Come and participate whether you have a little or a lot to share, and bring a friend. People of all ages are encouraged to participate.
For Covid safety, we will be gather outside if the weather is clear. If not we'll be inside and ask that everyone wear a mask. Thank you!
