The Village Green is Cashiers’ community treasure, with its expansive green areas and gardens, numerous sculptures, woodland and wetland trails, an extensive children’s playground and frequent public music and other events.
Thousands of residents and visitors enjoy our gem year round. Whether attending Groovin’ on the Green or a nature program, enjoying the playground with a child or grandchild or simply walking with a friend, everyone has a reason why they love the Village Green. For more than 25 years, the area has benefited from this beautiful, unique, free, public, gathering space in the heart of Cashiers.
In recent years, the Board of Directors of The Village Green recognized the need for a facility to house indoor public gatherings and conceived the idea of an “event” building. The Commons Building will extend not only the “season” of The Village Green but also further its mission to preserve the wonderful quality of life and sense of community in Cashiers. This facility will provide greatly needed space for additional civic, spiritual, cultural and educational activities. Its uses and potential would be numerous and varied.
Construction of the indoor Commons Building is a community endeavor. During March, the public is invited to join in special events as the timber frame is raised for the new facility. You can also purchase a peg or a piece of the frame to help raise this exciting vision for Cashiers. A donation to Raise the Vision for Cashiers is an investment in the legacy of the community.
