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