Create a healthier garden!
Vermicomposting (vərməˈkämˌpōstiNG) noun – the use of earthworms to convert organic waste into fertilizer.
During this workshop, you’ll learn about the advantages of vermicomposting over conventional composting, as a faster solution to breaking down organic waste, creating a nutrient-rich organic fertilizer and soil conditioner. If you have a garden and you’re not already vermicomposting, this is the workshop for you!
Under the guidance of 4-H Natural Resources Program Leader, Patricia Whitener, you’ll build your own vermicompost and take it home with you, so that you can start practicing this method immediately. Your fruits and veggies will thank you!
We are partnering with the Foothills Philharmonic to collect donations, food and/or monetary, from guests as they arrive at the local concert in downtown Greer. The concert is held at The Center for the Arts building located at 8004 Trade St. Greer SC, 29651. You are welcome to stay and watch the chamber play. It is a great experience in our hometown theater. Jenn will connect after sign up to arrange pick up and drop off of needed materials for event. These are all on Saturday evenings. *2/17-String Quartet *3/16-Woodwind Quintet *4/13-Chamber Selection

Artisphere has approached us to participate in their Arts Partner Program, offering a chance to secure funding for GCCA through volunteer efforts. By collectively completing 250 volunteer hours, we can unlock vital resources that will be reinvested back into our community in various meaningful ways.
While our dedicated staff is committed to contributing their time, we recognize that our team alone will not reach the goal. That’s why we’re calling on our wonderful community to join us in this endeavor. With your help, we can achieve our target of 250 volunteer hours.
We’re asking for volunteers to sign up for 2 to 4 shifts each, with most shifts spanning 3 to 4 hours (some may be slightly longer). Your participation will not only support GCCA but also contribute to the vibrant cultural landscape of our city.
To sign up for shifts, please follow the instructions provided in the link below. When registering, be sure to indicate that you’re volunteering on behalf of GCCA to ensure your hours count towards our total. After signing up, we ask that you kindly inform our Operations Manager, Alicia Mizuno, of the number of shifts and total hours you’ve committed to. This will help us keep track of our progress towards our goal.
Bring hope to the homebound.
