IMPORTANT INFORMATION

What to bring?

This is a Gifting Fair, and there is no expectation of bartering or selling items. We encourage you to bring meaningful gifts to share, but there is not a requirement to bring anything beyond your presence. That being said get creative and expand your idea of what a gift could be! Here is a list of examples of what you could bring. Consider also what you would be grateful to receive as a gift, there will be an opportunity to share this with others during the event and beyond.

Bring Meaningful gifts for the Gifting Fair, such as Crafts, Homemade Potluck item, Seeds/Plants/Produce, Service offering, Recipe, Art, Clothes, Tools etc.

For the Solstice Party at the end of the night, bring instruments, songs, dances, poems, art to share!

PARKING & LOCATION:

KINDESS FARM

Please park on the farm side of the street anywhere up or down the street - lots of parking is usually available. Do NOT park on the grass across the street from the farm. This is important for safety vehicles to pass through. We reserve 2 driveway parking spots (in the gravel, on the right) for folks with accessibility needs.
You'll see a Kindness Farm sign by the mailbox. Walk to the back of the property, under the carport, and past the house (that's where the farm is!) until you see our hoop house!
