south carolina tobacco museum印象

Great small museum that will be a pleasant surprise. Very well done...very informative. You will see how tobacco had such an impact on the area.

Took me back to my grandfather's farm. Lots of items on display here were used in hundreds of farms around the area. Great educational tool for kids if you have someone to explain function of items.

On a recent trip through the back road of SC we decided to stop at the Tobacco Museum (it was also recommended by the curator of the Marion Museum). While the museum is small it was very informative. The day we were there a school tour was in progress and the curator was busy so we did a self-guided tour. I grew up in NC and knew about the importance of tobacco to the Carolinas but being able to see some of the old equipment and seeing how the tobacco was processed was very interesting. While there is no formal admission charge there is a suggested donation of $1. This was worth the stop and very worth the $1 (or leave a little more) donation.

Our tour was led by a local Mullins volunteer who was very knowledgeable about the time period when tobacco was the major crop around Mullins.

Material exhibits very nice and interesting. Take the tour. It is very enjoyable and informative. Tour guide was excellent in terms of his delivery. Allow 1-2 hours.

First you see a film about the history of tobacco in Mullins. Then Reggie, the curator, takes you on a guided tour of all things tobacco, located in a tobacco warehouse. We have been there twice and have taken groups there twice also. Reggie is entertaining and the exhibits are very interesting. Call first to be sure he is there.

On a recent road trip to discover ancestry my first drop point was the museum (as it appeared to be the most common result when googling Mullins,SC). What a fantastic decision this was, I was greeted by the nicest man I have ever met (Reggie), who provided an informative and entertaining guided tour, admittedly I had no previous knowledge of tobacco and this one tour really gave me a new found appreciation and insight into how tobacco impacted the local area and world. Reggie was then kind enough to point me in the right direction to find a fantastic home cooked southern meal, before ensuring I found my transport to locate family and friends.A truly great experience that enhanced the fantastic time I had on the East Coast of the US.Many thanks to all those involved with the Museum and the kindness of everyone within the town of Mullins and Marion.

We stopped at the S.Carolina tobacco museum during our tour through South Carolina. By luck, we were the only ones there at the time and the museum coordinator gave us an amazing tour of the museum. We were so grateful. The museum is packed with so many artifacts and so nicely displayed. We left there very happy that we allowed time for this must see museum. Leaving a donation was a privilege.

I have traveled fairly extensively across the US and I would say one of my frustrations with small town museums is showing up and they are closed during their stated hours. Obviously they are battling a small amount of patrons... I arrived at 11:20 to find the doors shut and a sign saying they would return in an hour.. Mullins is not really a metropolis, while it does have a cute main drag and some interesting old tobacco buildings along the railroad tracks. The Chamber of commerce wasn't much help as they advised me to check out one of the local southern Buffets - Something I wouldn't find on Myrtle Beach(where I was headed) From the front door window, it looked like they had some interesting exhibits, but I guess I will never know.

This museum is small but holds a lot of SC history. It is definitely worth your time if you happen to be passing through Mullins , and while there .. eat at Websters Manor , just a block over. Best food around!
