Days at Brookgreen

Two days of bliss at Brookgreen gardens.... we took the Oaks Plantation Cemetery tour (see below) and the following day rode our bikes from our home to the gardens for lunch at the museum restaurant and a walk down towards the rice fields and meditation maze.  It is so nice to have such a beautiful garden in our backyard.

The Oaks Plantation History and Nature Trail

This tour is available from 12 noon - 3 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.

From March 3 - November 25, daily tours will be offered. 

Winner of the South Carolina Heritage Tourism Award, The Oaks Plantation History and Nature Trail brings to life an important historical element of the South Carolina Lowcountry. On a self-guided walking trail through the woods, visitors will see the archeological site of the former plantation house, the foundation of the spring house, Alston family cemetery, and the slave village. Through interpretive panels along the path, visitors will learn about the history of the individuals who lived at The Oaks Plantation during the rice-producing years. The area was the leading rice producer in the Nation (even greater than Mississippi and Louisiana).  Some of the wealthiest American's (Southerners) were rice plantation owners.  This changed drastically after the Am. Civil War and the emancipation of slaves (which were the workforce behind these huge plantations).

The Oaks Plantation was owned by the Allston/Alston family from the 1730s through the early 1900s and was home to South Carolina Governor Joseph Alston and his wife Theodosia Burr Alston, the daughter of Aaron Burr, Vice-President of the United States. Her marriage in 1801 was followed by a series of tragedies that ended with Theodosia's disappearance at sea in January of 1813 possibly due to shipwreck or piracy off the Outerbanks of NC just months after the death of their only child from malaria.

Due to it's remote location, access to The Oaks Plantation History and Nature Trail is only available on Brookgreen Gardens' vehicle. Tickets for the trail are $3 per person.  Well worth the extra fee for a very quiet walk in the woods steeped in history.
