Garfield County Education Center

This net-zero energy, adaptive reuse project transforms a feed warehouse into a makerspace and flexible 4H education facility. Added insulation, a rooftop solar electric array, and all electric HVAC systems makes this future education center a model for energy use with an education purpose through and through. The Garfield County Education Center will house the Western Colorado 4H club along with classrooms for Colorado State University extension programs, and Garfield County fairgrounds. The program supports STEAM education (science, technology, engineering, art, math) with spaces dedicated to education in: archery, woodshop/metal shop, sewing, cooking, gardening, food safety, and robotics. Donations for the project can be made online and more information is available at Garfield County Education Center
