Our Projects
THE GREEN BUTTERFLY MARKET
Ghana’s premier artisan event since 2010, the Green Butterfly market continues to be a major growth vehicle for many artisans and their families. The event is held every first and third Saturday of the month at the Department of Parks and Gardens in Cantonments next to the Italian Embassy.
SKILLS TRAINING PROGRAMS
We offer a variety of programs aimed at addressing the needs of our community, especially in the area of education and skills training. The Jamestown Soapmaking Cooperative established by Madame YazMeen is empowering Ga Dangme women via the art of traditional soap making.
MOTHER EARTH FESTIVAL
Vibrate your soul and awaken your senses at Green Butterfly’s annual Mother Earth Festival held every April at the Aburi Botanical Gardens. The festival revolves around environmental awareness, presenting various activities including health and wellness, sustainable shopping, a thrift sale, plant swaps, art, music and dance.
