What a great day at the market this past Saturday!

Lots of vendors, lots of sun, lots of visitors, lots of friends! This is truly the perfect community for the market. I'm so delighted that you are all a part it's revival. Nurture it and it will grow! ~ Signa ~ Market Manager





This is sure to be a very informative and fun event for all ages! Vendors will be sharing their experiences on such topics as growing heirloom tomatoes, whimsical container planting, herbs, and more. Children are invited to come and learn about planting and plant seeds to take home, furnished by the market. York Co. Clemson Univ. Extension office will be on hand to offer information on nutrition and
