BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — On Saturday July 13th from 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM at the 85 Walnut St. Community Center, Cornell Cooperative Extension of Broome County is partnering with NoMa- North of Main community to host the 1st Free Market Swap. Residents are encouraged to bring unwanted but still usable and clean items to swap out for items they will use for free. It is not necessary to bring items to participate.
Accepted items include books, kitchenware, clean clothes, office supplies, toys, sports gear, etc.
Items that are not accepted include broken glasses or dishes, stained clothes, pre-opened food, or anything that needs to be fixed to be used.
This swap will help keep usable goods within the community where they will find another home instead of being sent to the landfill or recycled.
All media is welcome to attend. Questions about the event can be directed at Josh, the Recycling and Composting Educator, at (716) 359-4387.
