At Summers Corner, we like to think of every day as Earth Day. Parks, gardens, water, and woods are at the center of our neighborhood vision, and so we welcome any opportunity to take in what nature has to display.  Join us as we celebrate our first Earth Day with expert gardening personalities from the Clemson Extensions Master Gardners Program and SCETV’s Making it Grow.  appearances
