Posted on September 22, 2026 - Rice Estate recently celebrated the opening of its beautiful new Nature Trail with a special ribbon-cutting ceremony, marking an exciting new addition to the community. We were honored to welcome the Greater Columbia Chamber of Commerce as we celebrated this milestone together. The new Nature Trail offers residents, families, team members, and visitors a welcoming place to enjoy the outdoors, stay active, and experience the many benefits of spending time in nature.
