How a Really Really Free Market works

Everything is Free. Really—really!

Take your contributions to the drop-off area.

If you have lots of stuff to contribute, ask volunteers for help.

Take what you need.

Carry your bags or carts with you at all times; do not store them inside the market.

If you bring a large item, first check with volunteers.

WHERE IS CAMPBELL AVENUE PARK?

Campbell Avenue Park is on 225 Campbell Avenue, north of Wallace Avenue and south of Antler Street, a 7 min. walk from Landsdowne Station, and a 5 min. walk from Symington bus stop on Dupont Avenue.

Locate Campbell Avenue Park on Google maps.
Or visit here to find more about the park.
PARKING: Last time we checked there was street parking on Campbell Avenue, with a 3-hour limit, which is much more than you will need. However, please check this information for yourself. We are not responsible for parking tickets you might receive if the above information is incorrect.

What is a Really Really Free Market?

A Really Really Free Market is a community-space for sharing – where people bring what they have to give, take what they need. But it's not swapping or trading. It’s kind of like a potluck, but for goods and services--but with an important difference: You don't need to bring anything to take something.

Please check facebook and signs at the market or ask information desk volunteers for quantity limits and visit (time) limits.

Please bring items in boxes, small bags or large clear bags. Use of black garbage bags is discouraged, since we cannot see what is inside the bag when it is handed to us; also we cannot recycle black garbage bags.
