Why? Building resilience – If we can build a neighborhood where we know how to take care of our needs close to home – we are more likely to do well in difficult times Growing Community – If we work together, share resources, eat and celebrate together, our community fabric grows stronger! Reducing waste – if we can repurpose that old sweater, it stays out of the landfill.
