Experience life on the “one horse farm” in Horry County from 1900-1955 at the L.W. Paul Living History Farm. On small farms that grew most of their own food, it was a special treat to have new potatoes cooked with garden peas in May. Enough potatoes and peas for “a mess” was considered something special at a Mother’s Day dinner. Join us on May 4th to see how these foods would have been prepared. Demonstrations will last from 11:00 AM until 3:00 PM.
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, contact the L. W.
