2014 Plantation Tours

The Sixty-Seventh Annual Plantation Tour of plantations and town houses in and near Georgetown, SC,  will be held March 28 & 29, 2014, just north of historic Charleston. Hopsewee-Plantation-400

Sponsored by the Episcopal Church Women of Prince George Winyah Episcopal Church, the tours attract folks from all over South Carolina and beyond.  Many out-of-towners enjoy overnight accommodations at DeBordieu for the weekend. If you need help with that, give me a call at 843-455-4523, or email me at TroiKaz@DeBordieu.com and I’ll hook you up with our on-site rental department.

The majority of the plantations and town houses are privately owned and graciously shared with the Episcopal Church Women of Prince George, Winyah Parish once per year. A different group of homes is on tour each day.

As part of the tour of pre-Revolutionary and antebellum churches, town houses and plantations, visitors are invited to the Winyah Indigo Society Hall for tea each afternoon.

Home baked goods, original framed art from local artists, many of them members of the church, books from the Georgetown Historical Society, and the award winning cookbook, Plantation Tours and Tastes, will be available for sale in the Parish Hall.

In addition, the annual Oyster Roast & Pig Pickin’ hosted by the Prince George Men’s Minsitry will take place on Friday, March 28th 6:00 pm at Hazzard Marine, 200 S. Meeting St, Georgetown. $25 per ticket. Tickets may be purchased with Tour tickets or through the church office.

pg churchHouses will be open from 9:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
