Rutabaga Toy Swap & Block Party!

Help kick off Earth Month with Rutabaga’s Toy Swap & Block Party—a fun-filled day of community, sustainability, and celebration! Come swap, celebrate, and connect with your community while keeping toys out of landfills!
Festivities will include an eco craft table, Earth Day Story Time, live music, food trucks, merch and a natural dyeing station.
While the event is free to attend, Toy Swap Tickets will be $25.
How the Toy Swap Works:
-
Donate your toys at Rutabaga Toy Library before the event (or day of) and get $5 off your swap ticket!
-
On Saturday, bring your own bag (ANY SIZE!) and fill it with pre-loved toys—one bag per ticket.
-
5 PM “Fire Sale” – Take anything left for FREE!
