March 24, 2025
Visit Laurens County, the tourism arm of Laurens County, operating under the Laurens County Chamber of Commerce (LCCC) in collaboration with Laurens County Administration and Laurens County Parks, Recreation, and Tourism, is proud to host the Laurens County Ag+Art Tour on Saturday, May 17th, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. This event is free and open to the public.
The South Carolina Ag+Art Tour, led by Clemson Extension, is the nation’s largest free, self-guided farm tour, highlighting local artisans and farms. It provides a unique opportunity to explore food sources, watch art demonstrations, enjoy one-of-a-kind shopping, and gain insights into rural life. Since its inception in 2012, the tour has attracted over 85,000 visitors and has become nationally recognized for its impact on rural revitalization, farm-art collaboration, and agricultural education.
Committee co-chairs Christian Taylor, LCCC Tourism Marketing Manager, and Courtney Stonell, Keep Laurens County Beautiful Affiliate Coordinator, shared their excitement: “We’re thrilled to showcase our local farms in the County! Last year, the event was a huge success, and we welcomed over 400 attendees.”
