In 2023, we successfully held our first Slow Down Salt Spring Community Swap event. Over 900 kilos of clothing were rescued from landfills, and over 550 wonderful people came to the event.
Based on the success of the last swap, we’re doing it again this fall! Time to go through that closet! Take inventory! Tired of that brown coat? Tight pants? Clear out the old and perk up your wardrobe!
How it works:
👉 Drop-off Your Clothes: Wednesday, Oct 16th, 3:00pm – 6:00pm
âś… Free Shop Day: Saturday, Oct 19th, 10:30am – 1:30pm
Accepted items: Clean, seasonal outerwear, shirts, sweaters, coats, pants, dresses, and pajamas. Excluded items: Underwear, socks, shoes, costumes, or anything with stains or holes.
No need to donate to access the free shop—it’s open to everyone! Let’s reduce waste, refresh your wardrobe, and support sustainable fashion together!
Slow fashion–good for our planet, good for our wallets, good for our community.
