We need to tell you about the people who make this whole thing possible.

On March 21, 885 neighbors walked through our doors. They found clothes for their kids, household items they needed, books they’ve been meaning to read. They walked out with more than things — they walked out knowing someone in this community cared enough to show up for them.

That someone? More than one someone, actually.

This week we gathered to say thank you to the volunteers who made The Really Free Market: The Big One happen in March — and who show up week after week to keep the Really Free Marketplace running.

They moved furniture. They sorted donations. They hung clothes on racks and folded things that had been unfolded seventeen times. They directed traffic and answered questions and smiled at every single person who came through the door.

They did not do it for recognition.
We’re giving it to them anyway.

To every volunteer who gave your time, your energy, and your Saturday morning — this one’s for you. We see you. We’re grateful for you. And we could not do any of this without you.

Come browse. Come shop. Bring a friend. Bring a bag.

Everything is free. That part hasn’t changed.

We need your help!

We have baby and kids' clothing. We do. What we don't have is enough.

If you have clean, gently-used baby or kids' clothes in any size — newborn and up — sitting in a bin somewhere waiting for their next adventure, we would love to give them one.

Every size welcome. Every item appreciated. Cartoon dinosaurs a bonus.

📦 Donations accepted Mondays 10am–1pm and Wednesdays 4–7pm
📍 2050 W 1100 N, Chesterton, IN 46304 • Door 4

No kids' clothes to donate? Share this post. That helps more than you think.
