Local History comes to Life on Farm Day

The Pendleton Historic Foundation (PHF) and Bart Garrison Agricultural Museum of South Carolina (BGAMSC) have partnered again for their annual event, Farm Day on Saturday, March 31. This one-day festival is designed to celebrate the rich heritage of agriculture in the Upstate. Visitors of all ages will enjoy demonstrations of old-time crafts, corn grinding, animals, and much more. It also includes an exhibition of tractors, combine simulators, hit-and-miss engines, and cotton gins to demonstrate the equipment of yesterday and today. Woodburn Historic House will be open for tours and Clemson Extension will be on site. Your children will have half an acre on museum grounds to enjoy crafts, games, and many more activities. Come experience the past, present, and future of agriculture during this popular annual event. Admission is $5 per person; children ages 5 and under get in free. Admission into BGAMSC and into PHF’s Woodburn Historic House is included in the ticket price. Doors open at 10am and close at 3pm.
