Be Green Kids Consignment Fall 2014 Sale
Sept. 25 - Sept 27, 2014
Fishkill Recreation Center 793 Route 52 Fishkill, NY 12524

 

The Be Green Kids Consignments Fall 2014 consignment event is a 3-day sale event where Be Green Kids rents a space, sets up just like a store, and parents from all over sell their outgrown, gently used kids items for 50-90% off retail prices. Clothes, toys, books, dvds, equipment (high chairs, strollers, bath equipment), nursery furniture (activity centers, pack & plays) and much, much more! We hope that by offering a safe setting for parents to buy and sell gently used children items we can reduce the impact our little ones have on the environment, as well as reduce the impact they have on our wallets. The sale feels much more like a boutique than a tag sale and is known for its neat, organized set up. All items are in great condition.

More About Be Green Kids Consignments

Be Green Kids Consignments is a small business started by sisters-in-laws Meredith Brown and Alison Murphy. Being parents, they understand how growing families struggle to keep their homes organized and struggle with the family budget. Some parents try to hold garage sales or use auction websites to recoup some of the money they have spent on their kid's toys, clothes, and equipment, but garage sales are limited to the scope of people one can reach and selling things on the internet can be unsafe at times. The Be Green Kids Consignment Sales are events where parents can prepare and drop-off their kids gently used items and then they will do all the work. This includes advertising and promoting the sale within a 50-mile radius of the event, setting-up and tearing-down the floor space and selling all of your items.

Meredith and Alison held their first sales in spring 2010. They hold 6 sales annually. Three sales in the spring and three in the fall in Dutchess County, NY; Westchester County, NY; and Newport County, RI.  They chose these locations because they live or grew up in those areas.
