Repair, Reuse, Reduce at the Connecticut Repair Café

Whether the value is sentimental or practical, most of us have something kept in a corner of the basement, the attic, in the back of a closet, that falls into the “they just don’t make ‘em like that anymore” category.  Unfortunately, “they” also don’t fix those anymore, either.
Well, except at the Connecticut Repair Café.
Organized by the Access Community Action Agency in Willimantic, CT, and with support from the Town of Mansfield, CT, the “café” is a meeting place for repairable items and community members skilled in repairing electrical items, electronics, bicycles and books, sharpening knives and mending clothing to make things useful again.
