Birth Depot




I use craigslist and freecycle a ton, but some items just can't be found in my area. West Virginia is growing when it comes to the concept of natural parenting, but slower than I would like.

Everything Birth just launched a pretty cool (AND FREE!) site called the Birth Depot. It's similar to craigslist or Ebay, but focused on items such as cloth diapers, midwifery, or just baby and kid items. There is also an "other" category; books are currently listed there. The photos above show some of the current listings.

Transactions actually occur between the buyer and seller (many sellers just use paypal), so the BD isn't actually selling anything. It is just providing a "safe" place for you to find other moms and pops who are interested in your once loved items.

Just another really cool way to keep "trash" out of our landfills!
