Sweetgrass basket making has been a part of the Mount Pleasant community for more than 300 years. Brought to the area by slaves from West Africa, basket making is a traditional art form which has been passed on from generation to generation. They were made from the soft, pliable grass commonly called Sweetgrass because of its pleasant fragrance, similar to the smell of fresh hay.
