Beer & Gear Buy/Sell/Trade!

‘Tis the season to clear out your old gear and score something new (to you). Bring your clean gear, set your own prices, and buy, sell, or trade. Coming to shop? Bring a few small, in-demand items and see what you can trade — or just come ready to find a great deal. The choice is yours! Shop items from local sellers, Free Air Life, Tortoise & Hare, and Romp Bags! Got clothing that doesn’t sell? Leave it with us — we’ll donate it to Union Gospel Mission after the event. Want to sell? We’re looking for vendors! We still have a few more spots available if you’ve got some gear you’d like to sell! Email marketing@bentpaddlebrewing.com to reserve your spot. Space is limited to about 10–12 tables (feel free to team up with friends), plus outdoor space for larger items.
