What is a barter faire? It is a two-day event where local and regional vendors will come together in a family style gathering to barter their crafts, produce, cuisine, skills, and collections of stuff. The location will be in a beautiful rural spot near Olympia. There will be camping and daytime visitors, singing, dancing, music, conversation, and many volunteer opportunities.

What’s the Mission of the Faire? The Olympia Family Barter Faire was created to build community, support a local economy, provide educational opportunities through workshops and skill shares, promote the arts, and work towards local sustainability. Our events encompass values that reflect a respect for diversity and the vision of a socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable society.

Thank you!
