Hello all, I belong to a wonderful local new group called Tompkins Share. It is dedicated to promoting local community and sustainability, two things that are important to many U.U.'ers! I want to invite you all to this months event which, Rich Chrappa, Sharon Dean, and I, Frank Muller, are hosting at our home in Lansing this Saturday. Like sharing? Have skills? Bring goods and services you'd like to share, and you'll be able to barter, give away or sell your offerings to other community members. The more we can provide for one another locally, the closer we are to sustainability! Saturday, September 26th, 2:30-5pm At Frank's Place: 156 Ridge Road, Lansing, NY Google Map: _http://tinyurl.com/n33xnb_ (http://tinyurl.com/n33xnb) Our fifth Swap Meet will be hosted by Frank in Lansing! Please spread the word to anyone you know in Lansing and let us know if need or can offer a ride from Ithaca. Directions from Ithaca: Take Rt. 34 north along the lake. Make a left at the light at Rogues Harbor Inn onto Ridge Rd./Rt. 34B, and it's about a mile down on your right, just past an old U-haul truck with a big snake/dragony graffiti painting and a big old barn. What to bring: - Food and Produce: veggies, teas, baked goods, jams, tofu, etc. - Body Care: tinctures, soaps, creams, etc. - Handmade Crafts: ceramics, candles, art, etc. - Stuff: electronics, housewares, tools, books, etc. - Services: massage, bike repair, web design, accounting, shoveling, moving, etc. - Space: housing, working, gardening, etc. + you can offer to host our next swap meet! - Bags, boxes and carts to take stuff home in - Tables or tarps for your stuff Guidelines: - Our goal is sustainability - please bring stuff that is locally-grown or made from local materials if possible, but anything is welcome! - Be prepared to take back home with you whatever you don't end up bartering or giving away. - Please bring stuff that is in good condition or can be easily-repaired - no junk!
