Buy Nothing Market - Babies and Kids Edition

Introducing our Kids Buy Nothing Market—an eco-friendly initiative to reduce waste and promote community sharing! Kids have a way of accumulating toys, clothes, and games faster than we can keep up. Instead of letting these items collect dust or contribute to landfill waste, why not give them a new life with families in your community?

Our Buy Nothing Market isn't just about exchanging goods; it's about building connections and strengthening our community. Items should be given with no expectation, bringing items to share is NOT a requirement for attendance. Remaining items must be taken home with you.

Meet other families, share stories, and forge new friendships as you browse through the array of items available.

You are only required to register for table space if you need it; simply attending the event doesn't necessitate registration. Please ensure any items not taken go home with you.
