For the last 4 years, Green Living Journal has participated in the Free Fix-It Fair City of Portland event where you can learn simple ways to save money and connect with resources. Attendees find a wealth of information!
What you’ll find at a Fix-It Fair
- Ongoing exhibits and hourly workshops on such topics as:
- Water and energy savings
- Safe and healthy home
- Food and nutrition
- Neighborhood and community resources
- Recycling
- Weatherizing your home
- Gardening and growing your own food
- Yard care and composting
- Transportation
Plus:
Repair Café: Bring one item to be fixed by a Repair PDX volunteer, while learning how to do it yourself. (Volunteers will do their best, but do not guarantee a complete repair.) You may bring a small countertop appliance, such as a toaster, or an article of clothing.
- Free lead blood testing
- Free giveaways
- Hourly door prizes
- Free professional childcare
- Free lunch
- Free minor bike tune-ups and flat tire repair for students and families
