2026 Spring Gathering
We invite you to join us at the 2026 Spring Gathering, presented by Norfolk Southern, to celebrate conservation on Saturday, April 18, at Hobonny Plantation in the ACE Basin. Situated on 1,300 wildlife-filled acres, guests will enjoy a family-friendly event featuring the property’s historic rice fields, 18th-century structures, and the Combahee River.
Tickets are all-inclusive—guests will enjoy a southern-style lunch with ingredients from Peculiar Pig Farm, local beer and spirits, and bluegrass music. Travis Folk, Trustee, land manager, and cartographer, will lead a talk on rice culture, sharing his expertise and findings about the extensive rice production on the property. Haddrell’s will also be on site to offer free fly-casting demonstrations and instruction utilizing the property’s historic canals and pond. With dedicated children’s activities, a silent auction featuring local products and experiences, and self-guided tours highlighting the landscape, we are excited for you to bring the whole family to this homegrown event.
Based on last year’s fast sell-out, we expect tickets to move quickly. Click here for more details about the property and to secure your tickets to this special Lowcountry experience!
