The Really Really Free Market

Sunday, 10 December 2023 - 10:00am to 10:30am
The Really Really Free Market

Somer Elan volunteers his time to save some of the food wasted by supermarkets in Melbourne and redistribute it at The Really Really Free Market to people who need it. The Really Really Free Market operates at the Catalyst Social Centre in Sydney Road Coburg every Wednesday (except for a short break in summer) and it is part of a world wide anarchist-inspired movement in which collectives of individuals take the direct action of setting up pop-up markets for free groceries. Somer participates in weekly dumpster dives, sets up the market and finds it satisfying to see people leave with several bags of perfectly good food that would have been wasted.
