Where: Gold Park, 415 Dimmocks Mill Road, Hillsborough

Don't have anything to do on Father's Day? Didn't get your dad a present and want to find something great for him but don't want to spend any money? Don't know what to do with him? Want to ditch him entirely and hang out with friends???

These are all great reasons to attend the Hillsborough Really Really Free Market on Sunday, 6/21!

Bring what you no longer need. Take what your neighbors have shared. Feel the joy of seeing that you are not the only person who feels like we should be providing for each other instead of isolating and hoarding!

Not sold?! We're not selling! Come for free!

We’re hoping to start a monthly rhythm as a way of practicing together, how to build a community where people can rely on one another.

On the first Tuesday of each month, we’ll host a Community Dinner. On the third Sunday, we’ll meet again at the Really Really Free Market (RRFM). We see these as spaces to learn, experiment, and grow into mutual aid, skill-sharing, and collective self-reliance, not as something we already have figured out, but something we’re building together over time.

At the Community Dinner, we will share food and drinks as we meet our neighbors. Everyone is welcome! A little while into the event, we'll take time to go around and introduce ourselves, sharing:

Skills/expertise we'd like to share with others
Skills we would like to learn
Needs we have, that we hope the community might be able to help with

After the go-around, we'll take some time to share projects and events that we are working on or hoping to start. Then we'll have some more time at the end for folks to chat.

🍽️

Community Dinner
When: Tuesday, May 5, 5:30-7:30pm
Where: Orange County Main Library, 137 W. Margaret Lane, Hillsborough

Then on the third Sunday of every month, we'll participate in the Really Really Free Market in Gold Park. The event is completely free. People bring what they want to give away and take whatever interests them.

This could also be a great place for people to meet up and continue their discussions from the Community Dinner or to offer skill-shares/workshops related to projects they're working on. This space is open to the community for sharing without commercial promotion or advertisement. Anyone can show up and put on a workshop, or offer to fix things for their neighbors, or paint children's faces. This is a space for celebrating the endless bounty of the gift economy!

🎈

Really Really Free Market
When: Sunday, May 17, 12-2pm
Where: Gold Park, 415 Dimmock's Mill Rd, Hillsborough

Together, these gatherings are an ongoing experiment in building relationships that aren’t based on transactions, but on trust, reciprocity, and care. If you’re interested in being part of a community that’s learning how to support itself - where it’s normal to both give and receive help - then you’re invited!

Hello friends! We have not one but TWO exciting events coming up next week!

\n \n

Community Dinner:

Local Project and Needs Edition

\n \n

📅 Date & Time: Tuesday April 7th, from 5:30pm-7:30pm
📍 Location: Orange County Library Meeting Room, 137 W Margaret Ln, Hillsborough
🍽️ What to bring: Yourself, maybe a dish to share

We'd love to gather for another community dinner - we thought we'd theme this iteration the Local Project and Needs edition.

There are a number of upcoming and ongoing projects in our community - we wanted to come together to discuss how we can best coordinate these efforts. Of course we want to eat together and grow closer as a community as well!

A few projects we'd like to discuss:

Hillsborough Really Really Free Market - What is the vision going forward?
Festival of Abundance - Organizers from MATCH in Carrboro are planning to attend our dinner to discuss the Festival of Abundance they're planning for May 23 & 24 and how we can help out.
Your Project! - We want to hear about what you have going on, what your dreams are, and how the community can support it.

A rough timeline for the evening:

5:30-6:00pm: Eat, chitchat, get to know neighbors, talk about your projects
6:00-6:30pm: Skills - What do we have/what do we need/what do we want to learn - go-around the room!
6:30-7:30pm: Projects share - let's take turns talking about what we have going on!

Hope to see you there!

Songwriting Workshop

with Jess Klein

\n \n

📅 Date & Time: Saturday April 11th, from 2:30-4:30 PM
📍 Location: Eno House's Fellowship Hall, 903 Eno St, Hillsborough

As a continuation of our ongoing skillshare series, we've arranged a songwriting workshop with our very own Jess Klein!

Class description:
Come get in touch with your inner songwriter in this workshop led by Hillsborough neighbor and critically acclaimed singer-songwriter Jess Klein. We’ll start off with an exercise to get you writing right away, then talk about how to shake off your inner critic, release writer’s block, and structure a song for maximum impact. There will be time for valuable group feedback on works in progress. You’ll leave with the seed of something new, and more confidence in your unique self-expression, no matter your experience level.

More about Jess:
Jess Klein came to this world to pull firebrand power and childlike joy from our darkest shadows. Her acoustic-driven, hook-laden story songs revel in the polychrome of human experience - joy, rage, sensuality and resilience. The New York Times calls her “A songwriter with a voice of unblinking tenacity.”

Jess has toured the globe performing in pin-drop listening rooms, cozy theaters and at raucous festivals in front of tens of thousands. She has toured nationally and internationally supporting Arlo Guthrie, Josh Ritter, Damien Dempsey, and John Fullbright and has opened for such legends as Ani DiFranco, Steve Earle, Chuck Prophet and Alejandro Escovedo. Jess has appeared on Good Morning America and NPR’s All Things Considered and has performed at the Newport, Winnipeg, Falcon Ridge and Philadelphia Folk Festivals as well as Fuji Rock Festival in Japan.
