Welcome to GreenYankee Bartering!
Bartering. Trading. Swapping. Exchanging. No money changing hands. Post what goods or services you have and request what you need. It’s that easy and virtually cost-free (just the price of postage if you’re mailing items). The renaissance of bartering is a welcome consequence of our challenging economy and it’s environmentally friendly. Why buy it when you can barter for it? Best of all, bartering on GreenYankee puts members in touch with members. So, you’re likely to meet someone who’s like-minded, probably very cool, and may be your neighbor!
It’s Easy!
- Click on Place a Listing (above).
- Sign in/register and fill out the form. Pics are good!
- In two shakes of a bartered lamb’s tail, your listing is submitted and you’ll receive an email with details of your post.
When someone is interested in bartering with you, they’ll contact you directly. Member to member. The more you post, the more more members you’ll meet.
Do you have a camp in Maine and want to try a yurt in Oregon? Try Home Swap. If you have extra marigold seeds this year, perhaps you’d like to try a different annual. Post a request in our Seed Exchange. Maybe you need some old bricks for a new patio. Try posting in Trade Stuff Locally. Of course, cooks and cooks-in-training can offer their best family recipes and reap the benefits of our members’ tried-and-true “secrets.” 5 chickens for 2 sheep??
Or maybe you’d like to trade a skill or a service, around the corner or virtually anywhere! Start bartering. You might make a new friend. And we’d love to hear about your success stories.
