The Richland County Ag+Art Tour is Just a Week Away!

If you’ve ever wanted to see the farm, we have an opportunity for you. We are usually open to the public by appointment only but next weekend, we are opening to the public as part of the Richland County Ag+Art Tour!

  Hours are June 12th from 10 am to 4 pm and June 13th from 1 pm to 5 pm

A Little About Ag+Art

The South Carolina Ag + Art Tour is a free, self-guided tour of farms and markets featuring local artisans at every stop. During the tour visitors have the opportunity to see first-hand where their food and flowers come from, watch artists in action, purchase their works and learn more about rural life. The tour is the largest free farm and art tour in the nation with over 35,000 visitors participating since 2012.

 This is the second year for the tour in Richland County.  As a member of the planning committee, I am thrilled to see it happen again in 2021.
