Join us for a special day at Idlehurst as we celebrate the Grand Opening of Idlehurst Mercantile, our brand-new student-run farm store, while also enjoying one of our favorite traditions — Pony Ride Saturday!
📅 Saturday, October 4
🕑 2:00 – 5:00 PM
📍 Idlehurst Farm, Woodruff, SC
✨ What to Expect
🐴 Pony rides/Fall crafts ($10)
🎃 Pumpkin/Mum shopping
🛒 Idlehurst Mercantile Grand Opening – Explore our student-run farm store featuring student-made goods like cooking tallow, vanilla extract, homegrown veggies, and more.
💡 The best part? Students are running the store 100% themselves — setting prices, tracking inventory, managing profit and loss, and even deciding how to reinvest profits back into the farm for next year. It’s a living classroom that grows entrepreneurs and critical thinkers.
🤝 We’re also excited to welcome select community partnerships with locally-made wholesale goods such as handmade soaps and tallow balms to complement the student products.
Bring the whole family out for pony rides, pumpkins, and a peek inside our new Mercantile — a place where learning, farming, and community come together! 🌾💚
