Quaker Market Donation Guidelines

The 2026 Quaker Spring Market is just around the corner and we know many of you are putting together donatable items right now. We will accept donations from the list below in the pod in the parking lot starting April 6th to April 25th and inside the meetinghouse or on the front porch starting April 26th through May 1st. Please note that we are no longer able to accept furniture. Please direct any questions about donatable items and drop-off procedures to market@annapolisfriends.org. Quaker Markets present the potential to fulfill a variety of roles including raising funds and awareness for our selected causes, building community, and providing an outlet for individuals to simplify their lives by donating items in good condition that are no longer needed, so that they can be connected with folks who need them.

We accept a wide variety of donations including:

  • bedding
  • books
  • camping
  • CDs and DVDs
  • children's books and toys

  • holiday items
  • housewares and small (working) appliances
  • jewelry
  • musical instruments
  • pet supplies
