🎁 Giftable Trades Barter Fair
Theme: Gift-ready offerings — handmade, homegrown, or service-based — perfect to share or trade, not necessarily holiday themed but ready to give.
Who can participate:
Product barterers: bring your goods and display them on a table (sharing a ~6′×2′ table space)
Service/Experience barterers: you may choose to roam and trade throughout the event, or station yourself at a high-top table or the counter area of the gathering hall
Hobbyists and professionals are both welcome! Pros please note: Your trades may be taxable; please consult your pro.*
Clear communication is key.
Barter training will be provided.
Meet the Giftable Trades Barterers for Dec 13

🌱 Spring Barter Fair — What’s Budding, What’s Next
Making space for what’s ready to grow.
Spring Barter Fair — What’s Budding, What’s Next
Saturday, March [date TBD] | 12–3 PM | Social Good Place, Portland, OR
Join us for Trade Up: Spring Barter Fair, a gathering for makers, growers, and creative professionals to share what they’ve been nurturing — and to trade for what they need next.
This fair’s theme — sprouting, budding, reviving — celebrates new beginnings in all forms. Bring your handmade, homegrown, repurposed, or customized goods, or offer your skills and expertise as services and experiences. From seeds and ceramics to coaching, mending, photography, web design, or creative workshops — if you’ve built it, tended it, or can help someone else grow, it belongs here.
Whether you’re a small business owner, a creative entrepreneur, or a community-minded neighbor, Trade Up is your chance to connect and collaborate in a cash-free marketplace built on trust and imagination.
