Our Fall Harvest Festival is a free, family-friendly event open to everyone! We’d love to celebrate with you. It will be a festive evening of homemade pies, DIY t-shirt making, family-friendly games, food, drinks, live music from an acoustic trio (starting 2pm), and an open house at the tool library!

If you’re interested in the DIY t-shirt making, we recommend folks bring their own t-shirt (totebag, sweatshirt, etc. also welcome) to decorate. The tool library will supply a few, but we may run out. We are still working out the details of whether this will be vinyl decals or screen printed.

For pies, we’re inviting the community to make and bring their own so we can all share with one another. It’s a pie potluck! There are no limitations, but we would like to label pies according to whether they have common allergens (eg. nuts), are gluten free, dairy free, etc.

This event is for folks who are already part of our community and folks who are interested in learning more. If you’re already a tool library member, we request that you bring three friends who haven’t yet discovered the magic, savings, and positive impacts of borrowing instead of buying. The more members in our community, the more resources we have to share with everyone!

There will be a short program where we talk about what we have been doing and where we plan to go, as well as an opportunity to support the tool library through contributions or other resources.

And while donations are encouraged, please know this is truly a free, welcoming event for all. Just by showing up and bringing new friends, you are part of building a more sustainable, green, connected community. Thank you!
