Scarecrows in the Garden Exhibit

Robert Mills Gardens : 1616 Blanding Street, Columbia, SC 29201

Scarecrows will take over the Robert Mills House gardens!

This free exhibit will feature handcrafted scarecrows made by local families, business, organizations and classrooms. On a stroll through the gardens this fall, you’ll see dozens of ghoulish, historic and colorful scarecrows.  

We are now accepting scarecrow registrations to place a scarecrow on the grounds. In addition to being available for public viewing during the month of October, hundreds of families will see the scarecrows at Trunk or Treat on Oct. 29.

This exhibit runs throughout the month of October and will be available to the public Tuesday-Saturday from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. and Sunday 1 p.m. - 5 p.m. so invite your friends and family out to explore the grounds!
