Seasonal gift market: a council program

The problem. Small makers miss the gifting season. Who it helps. A council or library team hosting it, helping makers and neighbours who want to try a stall. What you start with. Handmade and rescued gifts. What is delivered. A short market is run before a gifting season. A community officer hosts it with local partners and follows progress. How progress is known. Makers who took part and items sold are recorded. A short summary is shared with the council, with names and personal details left out. Main purpose. The main purpose is access to a useful product or service, or less waste going to landfill, for the community. Honest limits. Seasonal timing limits when it can run. Items are described accurately, in line with Australian consumer law, and custom made or refurbished items are disclosed. Ownership of your idea stays with you, and no job, funding or contract is promised. Track record. This is a new idea built on work Deals Colony has already documented. It has not been run yet.
