It was a totally fabulous post!!!

This is really such a wonderful idea, Marian! We have something similar to that here, no money is allowed to exchange and people barter for services and products they grow or make. It makes it really exciting to get it for nothing!

Or no money change anyway!

Thank you for bringing up this idea! It really is an awesome idea and many people are not aware that you can do it and that it is done. And it's fun!!! Appreciate the participation!!! Thanks for bringing me to the swap meet! tip!

Thank you so much!! And thank you for the tips!! So much appreciated! Is the barter fair pretty established? If you go and remember, I would love to interview and organizer. To figure out how to live a more sustainable life is what our podcast is all about :) And while we have some big names on our show and I very much appreciate them being our guests, I love to interview the "little people" who make a big difference - or a small - in their neck of the woods.

It will pretty much be over for this part of the season. I will check again to see when it will restart!

I remember growing up in New England and still to this day they barter a lot of things, especially in places like Long Island, all the way out on the North Fork.
