This review is from forever ago, but I never thought to review it until I saw someone else share…read moretheirs. We showed up and got to see the goats for a minute before heading inside. We all sat down in the dining room at a big table and went through the process. I honestly thought we would be more involved in the cheese making process, but it was more of an instruction and tasting throughout. I still really enjoyed it, but wanted to clear that up. Throughout the class, we made different cheeses, tasted them with crackers and other accoutrements and learned the process behind it. We thoroughly enjoyed the class... so much so that we purchased the take home kit to make our own. You can get all the items on your own, but we wanted to be supportive so we took home a gallon of goats milk from the farm, rennet, and citric acid. Plus we got instructions to take home too. We enjoyed making the cheese at home and it tasted so good. I now definitely appreciate purchasing a ball of mozzarella at the store a little more these days.

I was genuinely sad when the original MUSC Urban Farm was demolished to make way for new education…read morebuildings. It had become such a peaceful escape for me, and I really cherished the quiet moments spent in the garden. That said, I'm truly delighted to see the farm reimagined as an urban garden in front of the IOP building. It's wonderful to see a variety of vegetables, fruits, and herbs growing there, and the new location feels more accessible and visible to the community. I can't wait to see what it produces in the spring, but even now it's encouraging to see the space being enjoyed and hopefully utilized by more people. It's comforting to know the spirit of the farm is still very much alive.

During the summer months especially, watering is a constant need, and the plants would gladly accept your help. They always let you harvest what's producing, too, so you get a little "bonus" for your efforts. Parking is still only available on the streets unless you are fortunate to live nearby and can walk or bike. If you've never been, you should plan a stroll by sometime. It's so peaceful and beautiful, I'm sure you'll want to come back! There are no public facilities, but you can definitely use one of the neighboring buildings during weekdays. I would suggest bringing a water bottle so you can stay hydrated, too. I hope you get to enjoy this urban farm as much as I do.

Fantastic place for a family tour! We went for the gardens and nature, but we were really struck by…read morehow impactful the 'Slavery to Freedom tour' was for us! John's storytelling alone was worth the trip. The sordid history of slavery was framed in a context that made it feel personal, digestible, and meaningful to the listener. At least it felt that way to me. Hearing the stories before walking through the cabins, I could just feel the moment in history... rather than reading and digesting paragraphs on paragraphs of historical accounts on the walls while inside such a historical space. The nature tram tour and the animal conservatory ended up being the icing on the cake. It was beautiful to see and be immersed in all of the nature. The only drawback is that the main house tours were booked up and we didn't learn that until we got there. It worked out for us because I would much rather have had the slavery history tour and our time was already limited. All in all, this place is a must see (especially in April, when the azaleas are in bloom)!

Touring the Magnolia Plantation was a highlight of our trip to Charleston. We went with a small…read moretour group (12 people) we signed up at the Charleston visitor center so all three tours and transportation to and from were included in the price. We had the House tour which was very well done, interesting and educational. Throughly enjoyed it. We also did the tram tour through the property which we enjoyed a lot. The path was dry so we did get a dusty ride. In hindsight if the trail could have been lightly watered down to help with the dust this ride would have been much more enjoyable. The best of the three tours was the "Slavery to Freedom" tour. John was incredible telling the story of slavery and more importantly what these people went through. It was so educational hearing the story (instead of dates,) but emotionally moving. It made me realize that the history books used when I was in school were so generic and lacking any kind of detail and real life experiences these people went through. Seeing the slave houses with our hearing John's presentation would not have anywhere near the effect of seeing them after his presentation. John brought the real life detail to us. I told John that he should record his presentation and send a copy to every history school teacher in America. If you only go to one tour at the Magnolia Plantation, definitely go to John's "Slavery to Freedom" presentation.

This is such a beautiful location and place for a ride. The horse was such a gentle giant, his name is Bandit and I even got a hug from him at the end. I can not say enough good things about the guide. He was knowledgeable about the horses and everything on property and around. He was so friendly and since it was just us I felt so very lucky that I got to chat with him as we rode. It was over way too fast, I wish they offered longer rides. It was a perfect experience. Next time I return to Beaufort Im going back for sure.
