Family Fun: Honoring Indigenous Culture

About this event

@ Words, artifacts, and actions – Indigenous culture is present all throughout the South Carolina lowcountry! Learn about these cultural impacts past and present in honor of Indigenous People’s Day. Included is a hike in the salt marsh to visit an oyster shell midden – the physical remnant of long-ago feasts. Recommended for ages 6 and up; children under 7 must be accompanied by an adult. Participants should wear closed-toe shoes that can get wet and muddy (ex: rainboots or water shoes) and bring another pair of shoes to change into after the salt marsh. Participants should dress for the weather (and the possibility of biting insects) and may want to bring a water bottle. Program is weather dependent. (Exertion level: High impact- walking in salt marsh) Reservations required. Please note that tour participants travel via a 14-person passenger bus on rustic roads comprised of sand and dirt. Often, the roads are extremely rough and rutted, a situation which will jostle riders on the bus. Although the staff at Hobcaw Barony tries to keep them smooth, due to changeable weather and other factors, the condition of the rural roadways cannot be guaranteed to be even.
