Brookgreen Gardens History Project

Former residents, descendants and workers of the plantations that now make up Brookgreen Gardens are invited to share their Gullah Geechee experiences and memories with interns of the B. N. Duke Scholars Program of Duke University at Durham, NC. The plantations are Brookgreen, Laurel Hill, Springfield and The Oaks. The Gullah Geechee Cultural Heritage Corridor Commission has partnered with Duke in a two year community outreach; information gathered will help understand the Gullah Geechee culture of Georgetown County.  The interviews will be on June 22 and 27 and July 11 and 13; to sign up call 843-235-6049.

The Pilot House

The Joanne
at 29th Avenue North

The Sea View

The Jaunita

The Seaside Inn
around 1910
