Earth Day: Clothing Swap and Mending Clinic 🌎

FREE!!!

Guidelines for the swap:

  • Adult clothing, only

  • Please limit what you bring to one bag

  • 🚫 No dumping! 🚫 If you wouldn’t be happy to receive the item yourself, please find an alternative method to recycle the garment

  • Swap freely! Don’t expect the same value back that you give - there should be no strings attached to the items you bring!
