Experience life on the “one horse farm” in Horry County from 1900-1955 at the L.W. Paul Living History Farm. Join us on October 4th from 11:00 AM until 3:00 PM for a cooking demonstration. Grits weren’t always just for breakfast. Join us to see how this southern staple would be cooked on a wood burning stove and learn how they would be used to compliment other foods like seafood and pork.
