Harambee Barter Day!! July 31, 4-7pm

I want to invite you to spread the word about a unique Barter event that Root-Riot is going to be hosting at Harambee Garden.  “Harambee Barter Day” will bring people together to discover the unique resources possessed by the community around them. 

The Event will be held on Sunday July 31st from 4-7PM.  We are inviting anyone from the community to come out that day and join us.  The only thing people need to bring is pot luck dish and an idea of what kind of product or service they can trade with another person.   Here are just a few of the kinds of things that people might barter.

When it comes to the people around us, there is no shortage of talent, knowledge and connections.  This event is designed to celebrate and expand that.  (The attached files below can be downloaded and shared.)

  We would appreciate anything you can do to help expand awareness of both this event and the community spirit we intend to foster.
