community news Garner’s Natural Life Hosts Fall Giveaways in October
G
arner's Natural Life is changing things up a little this year. COVID-19 has impacted countless lives; not just around the world, but right here in the Midlands. Life is very different—schedules have been altered, routine lifestyles have been upended, and businesses and organization have had to make difficult decisions and adjustments to try to navigate an ever-changing world. And the same has been true for Garner’s Natural Life. After careful consideration, the locally owned health and wellness store, frequented by many in the community, has had to make the difficult decision to cancel its very popular Annual Fall Health Fair—a day of celebration and a way that Garner’s “gives back” to Midlands community residents for years of faithful and loyal support. This year would have marked Garner’s 10th year of celebration, but instead, Garner’s is shifting to hot customer giveaways, pushed digitally via social media and its website. “Make sure to follow both of our Midlands locations’ Facebook pages (GarnersColumbia and GarnersLexington) and also our Twitter feed (Insta-Garners803) for our fall giveaways,” says store manager Nick Beers. “Starting this month, we will start sharing great opportunities to win some must-have gift baskets from our vendors, as well as a few other surprises, such as a chance to win one of four Fitbits to be given away!” This is a way that Garner’s Natural Life can give back to the community, safely and effectively, in the face of COVID-19 without requiring customers to visit the physical store locations. As a reminder, Garner’s offers curbside pickup and shipping options for those that don’t feel comfortable entering the store. Locations: Garner’s of Columbia, 4840 Forest Dr., Ste. A; Garner’s of Lexington, 5166 Sunset Blvd., Ste. C. For more information, call 803-454-7700 (Columbia) or 803-973-3001 (Lexington). Also visit GarnersNaturalLife.com. See ads, pages 3 and back page.
