White House Farms Tour October 15, 2024 Featured
PRICE:
$125 per person
We will be heading to the farming region of Georgetown County to visit White House Farms which is located in the heart of the historic rice-belt region. When the Quattlebaum family took over the stewardship of White House Farms in 2011, they were drawn to the rich history of the land.
Starting in the 18th century, the peaty, muddy tidal fields at the farm had produced rice that was uniquely flavorful and redolent of the Lowcountry terroir. Although these rice fields endured more than two centuries of wars, hurricanes, even the Great Depression, insurmountable hurdles eventually ceased rice production at White House until recently.
White House Farms has reignited the rice-growing tradition and are one of the largest single estate growers of Charleston Gold Rice. Charleston Gold is a superior variety developed from Carolina Gold - the heirloom variety that made Georgetown County one of the world’s largest and most renowned rice growing areas.
After lunch on your own (there are many great restaurants to choose from!) you will have time to explore and shop Front Street in Georgetown!
