Holiday Fun and Giving Back: Join Us for the Palmetto Carriage Works Toys for Tots Event!

As the holiday season approaches, there’s no better way to embrace the spirit of giving and community than by joining us for a special holiday event! We’re thrilled to invite you to the annual Toys for Tots drive hosted by Palmetto Carriage Works—a festive tradition that brings Charleston together to make the season brighter for children in need.

A Gift and a Ride: How It Works

For one day only, we’re offering free horse-drawn carriage rides through the charming streets of Charleston to everyone who donates an unwrapped toy. These toys go directly to the Toys for Tots program, providing gifts to children and families who might otherwise go without this holiday season. Simply bring an unwrapped toy to the Big Red Barn, and in return, enjoy a beautiful carriage ride through the city, filled with sights and sounds of the season.

Each unwrapped toy donated equals one free carriage ride per guest, so don’t miss this chance to experience Charleston in a truly special way!
