Clemson University

Grand Re-Opening of the Natural Heritage Garden Trail

Join Patrick McMillan, SCBG Director and George Askew, PSA Vice President in the ribbon-cutting and re-opening of the Natural Heritage Garden Trail at the South Carolina Botanical Garden. The floods of July 2013 brought over $250,000.00 in infrastructure damage to this part of the Garden. Months of dedicated work by staff, volunteers, students and donations from the University, the city of Clemson and thousands of private individuals have allowed us to rebuild better and stronger Mountain and Piedmont sections of the trail.

Staff and volunteers will be available at stations along the trail to interpret improvements made to withstand flooding, the hundreds of wildflowers, and the natural communities. This section of the trail forms the heart and soul of the SCBG and features over 1000 native species of plants growing in natural surroundings.  The Hunt Cabin will also be reopened for visitors.
