How to have a happier life by getting rid of stuff will be discussed at Lifetree Café on Thursday, July 9 from 7:00–8:00 p.m.

The Lifetree event, titled “Upsizing Life by Downsizing Stuff: Living Large in an 84sq. ft. House,” features a filmed interview with Dee Williams, author of the best-selling book, The Big Tiny.

“I live in a tiny house. It’s 84 square feet, which is less square feet than a parking spot,” says Williams. “Downsizing allowed me to step away from a $250,000 mortgage, high utility bills, and feeling a bit lost in life”

Participants will get practical tips for getting rid of stuff, and see how one woman downsized to owning less than 300 items to maximize the amount of space in her life.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Snacks and beverages are available. Lifetree Café is located in the Bachwell at 116 N. Washington Street, Van Wert, Ohio.

Please enter through the Court Street entrance. Parking is available in the Courthouse lots.
