The Really Really Free Market is coming up on May 3rd. It will be the second one of the year and the good news is that it’s growing well! With that, however, comes the issue of the work growing as well. Running the event, things like setting up, helping people at the info booth, and cleaning things up does take some work so that our community can come together like it has.
We are a community and many hands makes the work light! We have come up with a sign up sheet that splits the work up so that no one has to do too much and we can all enjoy the market and get to know each other better. If you enjoy the market we ask that you consider helping to make it possible. Sign up here.
