In the 3081 (and immediate surrounds) area of Melbourne, hundreds of people use the Rough Trade 3081 Facebook page and take advantage of the online model where anything from home-grown veggies to furniture in great condition is traded for, well, you name it! The group’s founder and administrator, Greta Gillies, talks about it on Connection Matters Radio.
