Paying for a service with Shemittah produce?

Not the well-keeper, the bath attendant, the barber, the boatman

RestrictiveOne may not give [Sheviis proceeds]
Bayar — all your water, not only to drink
A service is not a Shemittah use

But water to drink — yes

Permissiveone may give
→ food for food

And to all of them — a free gift

Permissivemay give as a free gift:
Nothing said; the favor follows
Tiferes Yisrael: it is not trade at all
Sheviis 8:5

Paying for Services with Sheviis Produce

בַּיָּר, בַּלָּן, סַפָּר וְסַפָּן
אֵין נוֹתְנִים,
לֹא לְבַיָּר,
וְלֹא לְבַלָּן,
וְלֹא לְסַפָּר,
וְלֹא לְסַפָּן.
אֲבָל נוֹתֵן הוּא לְבַיָּר לִשְׁתּוֹת.
וּלְכֻלָּן, הוּא נוֹתֵן מַתְּנַת חִנָּם:
