ABOUT US
THE GRAHAMTOWN TEAM:
The Grahamtown Team (GTeam) is an organization made up of citizens from Rutherford County who have an interest in serving our community. The GTeam is focused on the Grahamtown Neighborhood located within Forest City, NC.
It is the responsibility of this team to provide programs and services that support the development and healthy living of individuals within this community and Rutherford County as a whole.
The GTeam was established more than 16 years ago and has contributed greatly to the Grahamtown Neighborhood. The team has collaborated with the Town of Forest City to modify homes and clean up the Grahamtown area. The GTeam has hosted multicultural events to foster awareness and we continue to focus on creating opportunities that produce healthy living and learning. The GTeam sponsors the community garden on Gypsy Street as one of our healthy living programs where individuals and families can grow organic and healthy produce. We also sponsor healthy living classes and learning opportunities for students and adults.
The GTeam is led by professionals, farmers, and individuals that want to support our healthy living, education, and youth in Rutherford County. It is our desire to see a healthy change in the people, the youth and our neighborhood.

GRAHAMTOWN COMMUNITY GARDENING
The Community Garden is a healthy component of the Grahamtown Team organization. The garden is located in the heart of Grahamtown and all are welcome to come and learn about the garden or even purchase a gardening bed to grow their own crops for a small fee of $25 annually. If you would like to plant year round and you are interested in acquiring a bed in the Hoop House, the cost is only $35. The Hoop House is properly ventilated for the summer and winter months allowing for great crops. The GTeam works with community partners such as RHI Legacy, Rutherford County Schools and students to plant, grow and harvest fresh organic fruits and vegetables. In 2019, the Grahamtown offered the Grahamtown community individual garden plots that they could have in their own yards in an effort to get children and families to begin growing healthy produce in their own yard. This program was sponsored by RHI Legacy of Rutherford County.
