Plan Your Visit
Imagine a place where nature's charm meets the thrill of learning, and stunning scenery provides a sanctuary for wildlife. It exists, right here, beyond the bustle of Spartanburg.
Hatcher Garden has delighted, educated, and inspired visitors for generations. Join us for an event, lend a hand, or just come stroll and unwind. Our gardens are here for you to enjoy from dawn to dusk, 365 days a year, free of charge.
Come and take a walk in the garden and see what’s blooming! Currently the Confederate Rose Hibiscus ((Hibiscus mutabilis) and Michelle's Pink Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum ‘Michelle’s Pink’) are putting on a show at the front of the garden as well as the zinnias. Come see them and many others before the first frost nips them.
Tai chi for your health
winter schedule
Due to the cooler temperatures and later sunrise, Tai Chi for Your Health with Micha Hensley will be starting at 10:00am on Wednesday, November 4. Originally used for defense and combat, this ancient Chinese martial art is now used as a gentle, low-impact form of exercise in which practitioners perform a series of deliberate, flowing motions while focusing on deep, slow breaths. Join instructor Micha Hensley, who has over 30 years of experience and has learned from the best. She teaches Chen style Tai Chi and her teachers are indoor students of Grandmaster Chen Zhengelei, who is one of the top inheritors of Tai Chi in China.
This is a great opportunity for beginners to start your Tai Chi journey! All levels and skills are welcome!
Saturday classes have been cancelled. We would appreciate if you would sign up.
