Members from the Lowcountry Master Gardener Association (LMGA) are applying their knowledge of southern, coastal gardening by digging in to beautify Bluffton’s Heyward House Historic Center. Once a month these volunteers bring their own tools to prune, plant, rake and hoe the nearly one acre property, a home that dates back to the 1840s. As the official welcome center for the town of Bluffton, the works of these LMGA volunteers ensures that area visitors to the Heyward House are presented with well-kept landscape befitting one of only eight antebellum homes still remaining in Bluffton’s National Register Historic District. In future months, work sessions will be on Thursday starting at 9:00 AM. |

In addition to the efforts at the Heyward House, other recent projects performed by the LMGA members have included planting gardens at the Boys & Girls Club of Hilton Head, rejuvenating the gardens at Hilton Head High School and landscaping for Habitat for Humanity in Beaufort. These volunteers also assist the Clemson Extension Service at the plant clinic on Hilton Head Island (Beaufort County Office Building) every Wednesday from 9:30-Noon.
