It’s almost Springtime, so how about a field trip to the Charleston Tea Plantation?? Details below:
WHAT:  Field Trip to the Charleston Tea Plantation
WHEN:  April 18, 2013 at 1:00 pm sharp!
COST:  $5.00 students, $10.00 Adults (pay at the door)
TOUR:  Factory tour and Trolley tour, allow 90 mins to 2 hours for everything, gift shop at end of tour for purchasing some tea!!
