The Davis Flea Market is a once-monthly affair that brings together members of the community in the spirit of commerce and camaraderie. It is a not-for-profit driven social enterprise, promoting sustainability and opportunity. Each month, residents of Davis are invited to apply for a stand at the market where they can sell used books, cds, furniture, clothing, knick knacks, toys, arts and crafts and electronics. It's a great way to divert your clutter from the landfill and into the hands of new owners!

The Davis Flea Market will be a place for students, families and professionals, where you can hone your haggling skills, drink hot chocolate, meet friends and listen to live music. It’s like the Farmer’s Market, but for those of us who produce more clutter than cantaloupe.

You can apply for a table here, or check out the Facebook page. It costs $25 to run a table; the tables are six feet in length, and one will be provided for you as part of the cost. The student rate is $20.

2012-02-02 11:06:52   I was blown away by the first Davis Flea Market. In the spirit of full disclosure I happen to know one of the directors, but anyone in attendance could confirm how great the event was, bringing so many like-minded-folks together in the spirit of community! Adding live music and a DJ was brilliant, and other decorative touches gave the market a retro/indie feel; when I used to think 'flea market,' I would imagine rows of boring tables in an empty parking lot, but the Davis Flea Market was classy, well organized, and inspiring. —DavidSachs
