The event pairs skilled volunteer Repair Coaches with residents who bring in broken household items for free evaluation and repair. Participants are welcome to bring items such as lamps, clothing, small appliances, wooden pieces, furniture, toys, digital devices, and electronics.
Repair Coaches will assess and repair items at no cost, provided the necessary materials are available. These talented volunteers are eager to share their knowledge and skills, keeping repair traditions alive and promoting sustainable living.
*Note: Items powered by gas engines—such as lawn mowers, chainsaws, and other gas-powered equipment—cannot be repaired at this event.
The Rockland Repair Café is a free event made possible through the support of the Rockland Conservation & Service Corps, a program of the Rockland County Youth Bureau, in partnership with Rockland Green, Pearl River United Methodist Church, and the Pearl River Library. Volunteer Repair Coaches from Woodcraft & Willow, Rockland BOCES C-TEC, and IBEW Local 363 will also participate.
For more information, or to confirm if a Repair Coach can fix your item, please call Kathy Galione at (845) 364-2932, or email rcsc@co.rockland.ny.us.
