Neighbor Know-How

If you can host it, you can post it!
If you can't? Learn how.

A community board where neighbors host real-life classes, parties, and how-to nights — and other neighbors show up to learn.

Can we start having fun now?

From pickle parties and charcuterie nights to chicken coop basics, guitar lessons, craft circles, and “please help me wrap these presents” workshops — Neighbor Know-How is where you share what you know and learn what you don’t.

We know because we know you know.

If you can host it, you can post it! If you can't? Learn how.

Welcome to our LITERALLY BRAND NEW site! If you are here you are one of the first involved in our start up. Obviously we need people to start posting and hiring so the website will get up and running!!!! Thank you and WELCOME.

Our sister site NeedaNeighbor™ is currently under construction. Thank you for being patient, it’s coming soon!

cost : $14.99= 30 day posting

Thirty days. Fourteen-ninety-nine. One brilliant chance to put yourself out there.

Gather your people and make a memory — pick something fun to learn, or host a class of your own!

welcome to your new favorite cozy little corner of the internet

Let’s be honest — you’ve probably had a side gig idea rattling around in your brain for years. A class you could teach, a skill you could show someone, a fun little “I could totally host that” moment.

Well… this is your sign. The elves are watching. 🧝‍♂️🧝‍♀️ They have clipboards. They’ve checked their lists twice.

This is your place to stretch your wings a little, try something new, and share what life has taught you. Maybe you’re retired, semi-retired, or “I don’t know what I am anymore but I definitely want to be useful.” Perfect. You belong here.

I especially want to see the 55+ crowd in here — showing up, being relevant, having fun, and making a little side money to help your fixed income stretch. Your stories, humor, competence, and calm presence are irreplaceable.

And if you start dreaming up a class and think, “Wait, I might need an extra set of hands… or five,” guess what? NeighborKnowHow and our sister site NeedaNeighbor go together like mashed potatoes and gravy — warm, comforting, and meant to be side-by-side. 🥔🫙 NeedaNeighbor is a separate, but connected, bulletin board where neighbors can offer and request short-term, paid help. It’s the perfect place to find set-up helpers, clean-up helpers, kid-helpers, or “please just stand here and help me with this” helpers for your NeighborKnowHow event.

These ideas have been bubbling under the surface for years… and funny enough, they ended up fitting together in the most unexpectedly perfect way.

We’re all a little tired of Zoom, endless videos, and sitting alone on the couch. This is your chance to gather again in living rooms, garages, barns, shops, studios, and community halls — to learn, laugh, and actually do things together. Real people, real spaces, real life.

In general, if you can host it safely, you can post it proudly.

No spam is welcome here. No hard-selling. No storefront shouting. Just your know-how, your supplies if you bring them, and your willingness to teach. ALL AGES are welcome — teens, parents, grandparents, retirees, makers, creatives, beginners, experts, the nervous, the curious, the “I have no idea what I’m doing but I want to learn.” You belong here.

A neighborly safety reminder: meet in public or familiar places, let someone know where you’ll be, and trust your gut. Coffee shops? Yes. Your kitchen table? Sure. A craft barn? Absolutely. A dimly lit alley behind a bowling alley at 11pm with someone who says “Don’t worry, you’ll see the surprise”? Absolutely not. This is community, not a Netflix true-crime special.

How NeighborKnowHow Works

NeighborKnowHow is a simple community bulletin board where neighbors either host a class or attend one. No apps, no accounts to manage — just real people teaching real skills in real spaces.

Path 1: Host a Class
  • Post your class idea. Add a title, short description, date, time, and what people should bring.
  • Set your price & logistics. You decide what you charge and how people pay — you are an independent contractor.
  • Communicate expectations clearly. Let attendees know what the class covers and any basic safety notes.
  • Teach in real life. Whether it’s your shop, garage, kitchen, or community space — it’s your environment and your format.

Need extra hands? You can hire helpers separately through our sister site NeedaNeighbor for setup, cleanup, kid helpers, or support roles.

Path 2: Attend a Class
  • Browse the board. Pick something that fits your interests or curiosity.
  • Read the details. The listing explains what you’ll learn, what to bring, cost, and how to join.
  • Show up ready to learn. Ask questions, meet neighbors, and enjoy the experience.
Safety & Good-Neighbor Guidelines
  • Communicate expectations clearly and respectfully.
  • Meet in familiar or safe public spaces whenever possible.
  • Everyone manages their own payments, boundaries, and decisions.
  • Hosts may consider simple event insurance for hands-on or tool-based classes.
  • You’re responsible for your own judgment, comfort level, and participation.

NeighborKnowHow is a posting platform — not an employer, organizer, or supervisor. Hosts and attendees are responsible for their own actions, communication, and safety.
