Garden Festival Postponed


Middleton Plantation, Charleston, S.C.

I just discovered the Charleston Garden Festival has been postponed until March because of the economy.

Charleston Garden Festival
Given current economic conditions, the Middleton Place Foundation has decided to defer the next Charleston Garden Festival until March 11-13, 2011. With an optimistic look to the future, Foundation leadership believes the economic climate will then be in a better position to allow for the corporate sponsorships and additional support needed to present the type of garden festival the community has come to expect and deserve.
Good luck to them. It's been a lovely festival and clearly a fun photo op.

That is such a charming garden! Sorry to hear about the festival though.

It is such a fun place to take pictures when they have it all set up. I think they are hoping the economy will turn by March.

Joan, did you notice - they're saying 2011 - not next year!

I did not. My mind read "next year" without even noticing the date. That is too bad.
