No Eventbrite booking, and no electrical fixers this time.

There will be a Really Really Free table – take your items home if they’re still there when you leave.
Food Swaps – Preston/Thornbury

Fix-It Monthly Session – February
It’s Back! Our Newlands fix – it mend it Monthly session. Come Join Us.
This is an informal session, where people can bring their own items that need mending (and whatever supplies they need for it) and mend them themselves in good company.
How great will it be to be able to use those things in the back of the cupboard!
When: Thursday February 6, 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.
Where: Preston – contact 0468 963 868.
We will start as a lounge room event & then see if it moves to a different venue.
Note we LOVE Repair Cafes where volunteers fix things for you. This is different – this is where we make the time to fix/mend our own things – to make it a priority 🙂
Food Swaps – Northcote
The next Northcote food swap will be on Saturday January 11, from 11 to 12 pm. It can be found at the Northcote Library Food Garden – 32-38 Separation Street, Northcote.
Food Swaps are an occasion to meet your community, talk about gardens and sustainability and swap excess produce from your garden, or something you made in your kitchen. You bring some and get to take some away as with all good swaps.
Ideas of what to bring:
- seeds from your garden
- seedlings
- fruit
- vegetables
- herbs
- preserves
- cordials
- sour dough starter
The list goes on…
