CHARLESTON HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY
Welcome to the enchanting world of the Charleston Horticultural Society, where a passion for cultivating beauty mingles with a deep reverence for the natural world. Nestled in the heart of the South Carolina Lowcountry, our Society is dedicated to the preservation, education, and celebration of all things horticulture.
At the Charleston Horticultural Society, we believe that gardens are not just places of aesthetics, but also spaces that connect people, nurture the environment, and provide a sanctuary for both flora and fauna. We carry forward a legacy of fostering a love for gardening, conservation, and the appreciation of the natural wonders around us.
