Plantation Days at Middleton Place

Event Details

Middleton Place invites visitors to see what life on a Lowcountry plantation was like in the 18th and 19th centuries. On Nov. 12 and 13, the National Historic Landmark will welcome visitors to immerse themselves in Plantation Days, an annual event reflecting the activities of a Charleston plantation during the harvest season.

Each day, the Middleton Place Stableyards will be abuzz with demonstrations on cooking, textiles, blacksmithing, coopering, and hands-on activities such as pottery, cotton and rice processing, and candle making. This is the second weekend of Plantation Days, the first took place in October.
