Shameless repost
Friends and strangers give
asking nothing in return
They gain a great deal
When: Saturday, August 29th, 1PM-5PM (Last Saturday of each month)
Where: Jacob Hoffner Park in Northside
What: The Really Really Free Market is a non-hierarchical community supported potluck of goods, food, music, services, crafts, skills, performances, stories, art, smiles, resources, conversation and anything you can think of! It is a gift economy based on mutual aid in which everyone is encouraged not only to bring and possibly walk away with something new to them but a positive experience often lacking in our consumer driven culture. At the RRFM there is absolutely NO need for bartering, exchange, selling/buying or anything having to do with money based commerce. There are no rules and it's all free with no catch!
Who: YOU!
Why:

Whether or not you plan to join us, please tell everyone you know. The more people that are involved, the better the market will be, so blog, call, email, text, twitter, post flyers, and otherwise spread the word.
You're welcome to share anything you have to give, but you are not required to do so. The pleasure of your company is all we ask.

Who: YOU!
Why:
- Because there's enough for everyone.
- Because sharing is more fulfilling than owning.
- Because corporations would rather the landfills overflow than anyone get anything for free.
- Because scarcity is a myth constructed to keep us at the mercy of the economy.
- Because a sunny day outside is better than anything money could buy.
- Because "free trade" is a contradiction in terms.
- Because no one should have to do without food, shelter, entertainment, and community.
- Because life should be a picnic, but it only will be if we make it happen.
