What's a Food Swap?
Find out what's happening in North Cantonfor free with the latest updates from Patch.
A food swap is an event where
people meet to share homemade, homegrown, and foraged foods
(including plant starts and seeds). No money changes hands but
instead attendees bring items they wish to swap for other’s
produce. Packaging and labeling does help although the emphasis will
be on the food that is created using FRESH & LOCAL ingredients,
not on the packaging.
Each unique item will have a
sheet placed in front of it. During the “walking around” phase,
swappers will write down what they are willing to trade for a given
item (sheets will be provided). For example, if you have jars of
jelly and you want a loaf of bread, you put down your name and “jars
of jelly” on the bread sheet. During the swap phase, you find
people who want your products and whose produce you want. Sometimes
you can get someone to trade even if they didn’t write down a bid
on your sheet, but this is usually only if they have extra they don’t
want to have to take home.
