Formerly the McGee Mule Barn, the Iron Oak Barn was relocated from Starr to Pendleton in 2020. The McGee family ran a highly successful business out of the building until WWII, exporting mules all across the South. Inside, literal "stock traders" ran the mule business from the loft office and the animals slept in the stalls below. As you walk through the barn, you can imagine the hustle and bustle of sale days and the gentle rest of early mornings gone by. I.O.B. is a celebration of agricultural history and has been restored to its former glory - and modernized with several amenities - on the grounds of the Agricultural Museum of South Carolina as an event space.
