Musser Farm is a 240 acre fruit tree research farm. It has an

excellent collection of commercial peach cultivars and related
wild Prunus species, as well as nectarine, almond, apricot, plum,
cherry and various interspecific hybrids. Through a recent bond
issue the State of South Carolina, in collaboration with the S.C.
Agriculture Experiment Station, appropriated $1.5 million to
enhance the research and teaching capabilities at this facility. This
new construction, totaling nearly 6,000 sq. ft., includes 2,500 sq.
ft. of "wet chemistry" laboratory space, offices, a greenhouse,
lathe house, walk-in cold rooms, postharvest storage rooms, and
two growth chambers.
