Monthly Arboretum Open House

All are invited to the Open House, always the 3rd Sunday of every month, 1 - 4 p.m.

Always free admission. Tickets and registration are not required.

Also open Wednesdays and Saturdays 9-12 and Thursdays (Winter 3 - dusk) (Summer 4 - 6)

Visit the botanic garden horseshoe, pollinator display gardens, and walk through 10 biomes of South Carolina along a 1/3 mile trail.

Special stops are at the longleaf pines atop a bluff of fossilized sand dunes, the boardwalk overlooking a bald cypress swamp, a grove of Atlantic white cypress in the central wetland, and the allee of ancient tulip trees in the ravine. Pause at the waterfall or other scenic stops and take in the gifts of nature, here in the middle of town.

• Pets are not permitted in this wildlife sanctuary.
