Experience life on the “one horse farm” in Horry County from 1900-1955 at the L.W. Paul Living History Farm. Join us on June 22nd from 9:00 AM until 10:30 AM to learn about the different animals on the farm and their various roles.
For farmers who wanted egg production from their hens, a broody hen could be a problem. When broody, a hen wants her eggs to hatch and may stop laying eggs if she is not allowed to hatch chicks. Join us as farm staff will talks about hens and ways to prevent them from becoming broody. The public is also invited to help feed the animals. From 9:00-9:30 visitors can select an ear of corn, shell it, and use it to feed the chickens.
The L. W. Paul Living History Farm is open Tuesday-Saturday 9 AM-4 PM and teaches the history of the Horry County farm family. The farm is free and open to the public and is located at the corner of Hwy 701 North and Harris Short Cut Road in Conway, SC. For more information, call the L. W.
