South Carolina Gourd
Society
The South Carolina Gourd Society is
educational in nature and accomplishes this by encouraging
and supporting presentations, displays and seminars,
providing educational resources and exhibits. We have
differing levels of creativity for young and old, creating
one-of-a-kind pieces of art that started with the foundation
of a seed, soil, nutrition, water and a burst from the sun.
Representing the South, we are proud to lift from nature’s
own and place the fingerprints of the human soul upon it.
