The New Freebie Barn
The Town of Kittery, in collaboration with the Climate Adaptation Committee and Kittery Climate Action Now (KCAN) reopened the Freebie Barn Program with exciting improvements.
The Freebie Barn is a place to drop off, pick up, and swap common, reusable items EVERY Wednesday and Saturday (dependent on volunteer availability). The goal of the Freebie Barn is to prevent items that still have a useful life and purpose, from being put into the waste stream and landfills.

- The Freebie Barn will no longer follow monthly donation themes. Residents are welcome to donate items in good working condition, as space allows. All donations will be checked by our volunteers. Acceptability of donations is at the discretion of our volunteers.
- The Freebie Barn will continue utilizing local Community Partners to ensure items that still have useful life, can be repurposed or reused by those in need.
- Residents that are interested in donating items in response to specific local needs are also encouraged to explore the Community Resource Donation Guide. The guide includes several local organizations that collect/repurpose items, in addition to what can be donated to the Freebie Barn.
