Eliza Lucas Pinckney became the first planter to grow indigo in the Americas when she introduced it on her South Carolina plantation. Indigo became one of the South's major cash crops, along with cotton and rice (all of which were made possible by slave labor). Over the course of her lifetime, she constantly worked to improve the growth and production of indigo. She also experimented, less successfully, with raising silkworms.
Pinckney took over running her father's three plantations at age 16 and later ran the plantation for her husband, Charles Pinckney, a chief justice of the South Carolina court. Her husband and son later signed the U.S. Constitution.
