One of the biggest problems in Grafton is how much taxes we are paying for public schools. We can support the alternative by offering our services to teach, whether adults or children. If you could use some extra money and are good with math, sports, art, gardening, history, etc, why not offer classes, workshops, or tutoring?
I have heard there is a need for a bussing service to the city, or even car pooling.
A lot of us want to become more self sufficient. We could create a market to help each other do that. Those with expertise can set up groups or workshops. They can volunteer their time, or sell it. Those who want to learn can volunteer their time, pay, or get hired on. Those with spare resources can offer them in exchange for knowledge, work, or money.
For example, a person with knowledge of simple gardening methods could start a garden and create workshops. If they need labor, they can train volunteers, charge students to work the garden, or hire workers. If they need land, a land owner, perhaps even a homeowner with a lawn who would like a garden established, could offer their land in exchange for the knowledge, the establishment of a garden, the produce, or money.
If someone has knowledge of bitcoin, encryption, mesh networks, etc, they can give consulting services for free or for a cost. They can set up workshops so groups of people can get set up. Hacker spaces could regularly meet for those with more or less experience to improve their security and privacy techniques.
Those with knowledge of building could set up workshops to build tiny homes. People who want to learn to build could volunteer, or be charged, or hired on. The home could be sold or rented, or the homeowner could cover the cost.
Those with tools could create a maker space, and charge people for access.
