Community Involvement

Giving Back to Our Community

Banner/Bonnie Greenhouses is proud of our involvement with our community on multiple levels including the public elementary schools, high schools, community colleges, and gardening organizations.

Local Schools

We are committed to supporting our community schools with both advice and plants for use in beautification, fundraisers, exceptional students programs, and agricultural programs. Each year we donate plants to West Marion Elementary, McDowell High School’s Agriculture Program and Exceptional Students programs. We support Western Piedmont Community College with plants and participate on their horticultural advisory board.

Master Gardeners

We are dedicated to supporting the McDowell County and Burke County Extension Master Gardeners programs.

Plants we have donated are used in school greenhouses and in the community gardens.

Thanks from the John Wilson Community Garden

We’ve been harvesting over 100 pounds of greens every week since the end of September thanks to your generous donation of starts this fall. One week we harvested 150 pounds of just lettuce. Bounty and Soul and their clients, to whom all this beautiful produce goes, are deeply grateful. It brings me and all of our garden volunteers joy to be caretaking such abundance.

Wishing you all a bountiful holiday.

With gratitude,
Diana McCall and The Dr. John Wilson Community Garden
