This community events calendar is the place to find fun activities and things to do throughout Lewis County, including Centralia, Chehalis and beyond.
Join us to attack the invasive blackberry and Scots broom that threaten our beautiful natural area. We’ll also remove plant protectors that are no longer needed.
Bring work gloves, garden clippers and a water bottle; bring your lunch if you’d like to relax after the work and enjoy the trail (and maybe watch the eagles!!).
We will provide weed wrenches for the BIG stuff, and lots of encouragement.
The Centralia-Chehalis Chamber meets on the second Monday of each month. The schedule is adjusted for holidays. Click here for the complete event calendar for the chamber.
Instead of burning branches and tree debris, bury it! Use nature’s technique for creating the same rich humus found on forest floors.
Colorful dye can be extracted from flowers from the garden for dying textile fiber. These floral dyes are eco-friendly and all organic, not like synthetic dye. Moreover the procedure is very cost-effective and easy to learn.
Enjoy beautiful music under the trees with musicians from Bethel School of the Arts in downtown Centralia. Sing and play along, or just take in the sounds of sights in our second annual Music on the Hill interactive concert.
Vermiculture, or worm box composting, is a process in which red wiggler worms (also called manure worms) and micro-organisms are used to convert kitchen fruit and vegetable waste into nutrient-rich humus, “black gold”. Gardens and potted plants love the addition of this becoming healthier and more robust.
Venture into the woods, hunt for natural and interesting things, then use your creativity to make something from your imagination with artists from the Bethel School of the Arts.
Composting is nature’s process of recycling decomposed organic materials into a rich soil known as compost. Anything that was once living will decompose. Basically, backyard composting is an acceleration of the same process nature uses.
