Market & Silent Auction

Welcome to Richmond Waldorf School's
Virtual Holiday Market & Silent Auction!


We have gathered a curated offering from some of our favorite makers and doers in RVA, to create a one-stop holiday shop for you, our RWS Community. 100% of proceeds from our generous silent auction donations, as well as 20% of all vendor sales will go directly back to RWS!

We are so excited to share these perfectly giftable experiences and products, and hope to help you check off everyone on your list from the safety and comfort of your couch. 


A few helpful tips:

On auction items, you'll see the option to "Make A Bid". There's also an option to "Buy Now" if you'd like to make it yours right away. Bidding on all items will close when the market does on Monday, December 7th.

On vendor items, you will only see the option to "Buy Now" as you will be purchasing these items directly from the vendors. Quantities are limited, so don't delay!


Your purchases will be coordinated for on campus pick-up the week of December 7th through the week of December 14th. The Holiday Drive-Thru Fundraiser Event on December 12th will also serve as a pick-up time. 

On campus pick-up is preferred on all items, but shipping can be offered for a flat $10 fee. 
Please purchase the item "$10 Shipping Fee" if you would like us to ship to you. Items will be shipped the week of December 14th.


Happy shopping, and thank you for your support of Richmond Waldorf School!

one little world is a small, but growing, fair trade company based in richmond, virginia. 

after graduate school in 2004, i traveled to ecuador to teach.  it was there and then that a whole new world of purchasing power came to light...

i remember being told that while shopping at the markets, i had to be ready...ready to bargain and ready to walk away if what i wanted to pay wasn't accepted.  but that advice didn't make sense, it didn't feel right.  seeing all the beauty in that otavalo market (and every other market, in every other country, since), knowing i wanted to own some of that beauty, the only thing that made sense was paying what was fair.  and to do that, i had to have some honest conversations with the sellers (around this time too, i decided that i would only purchase items made by the artisan.  no middle guys!).  amazing things come to light when you begin to ask questions.  you realize these "producers" aren't much different than anyone else i know.  most are parents, wanting, like i do, the best for their children.  to feed them, dress them, provide a safe and warm home...to send them to school.  

when you buy fair trade, you're making the statement that you value and support these ideals AND the individuals, families and communities that benefit from them!  buying fair trade is a simple way of saying "i want to be part of something fair."
