I just stood and marveled at the works of several of their artists. Truly impressive and innovative pieces. More than I expected for a fairly small town. And the person on staff was helpful about suggestions of other places to visit in the area. I did not leave empty handed and love the mug I bought.... Although I'm likely to use it as a vase rather than a mug.

Visited Botany Bay on Sunday. Free. Self-guided driving tour of the preserve with printed pamphlet explaining different points of interest. Entire area is stunningly beautiful; marshes, trees, beach! One of the places you can visit is the beach. About 1/2 mile from beach parking lot to the beach. 'Due to natural beach erosion the coastal forest is slowly being swallowed by the Atlantic Ocean'. This creates an absolutely surreal experience. We have never seen anything like it. Trees sticking up out of the water. Make sure you go at low tide. I understand beach is not walk able at high tide. A gabillion sea shells which you are not allowed to take, some interwoven in tree branches. About 5 miles from Edisto Beach. We drove down from Charleston and cant believe we found this gem. A must see.

Needless to say all my fresh vegetables and fruits come from here when we vacation and we can never leave without getting one of their pies!! This year was two trips by and a lemon cream pie and a chocolate cream pie! One year I'll brave the tomato pie!

We LOVE stopping at Kings Farm Market on our way into AND out of Edisto Island. It’s a small farmer’s market but they will have something you’ll want to enjoy on the Island during your stay AND something you’ll want to take home to share a little island flavor. They have pies, cakes, other sweet treats and savory tomato pies and casseroles-squash, broccoli, and seafood-Omigoodness so delicious! Oh and shrimp and pasta salad and I could just go on but I will wrap it up by recommending a stop both on your way IN and OUT of the Island it’s just a treat to have some old fashioned goodies there and when you get home.

This is a very nice bookstore featuring books about the area and its history, new titles, and lots of good literature particularly by regional authors. Also has an extensive used book section, maps, gifts, and artwork. And friendly staff (and clientele!) Buy books here and help support this important Edisto asset. Check it out.
