The trails of Chimney Rock in the fall are amazing, but a guided hike off-the-beaten-path can lead you to places you never knew existed. Join us for this autumn adventure on one of our most popular excursions. You’ll discover seasonal changes along your trek that will introduce you to a whole new perspective of the Park. This hike is considered moderately strenuous. Space is limited and advance registration is required.

GivingTuesday is a global effort to inspire generosity and show the power of love and kindness. Typically celebrated on the last Tuesday of November, GivingTuesday is an annual event that encourages everyone to show gratitude, volunteer, be friendly and neighborly to others, and give to causes or those in need.
OGS is celebrating GivingTuesday for the entire month of November and established the Give to Grow Fund for that purpose.
Our Give to Grow Fund
The Give to Grow Fund raises money specifically for scholarships to help participants attend all classes and programs at OGS. We prioritize farmers and gardeners that are Black, Indigenous, People of Color, low-income, and/or from other historically marginalized communities.
