Fresh & Healthy: Downtown Farmer’s Market (Saturdays) Fresh Produce & More!

It is the beginning of produce harvest for a lot of local farmers which means the Farmer’s Market is opening.  Many local communities will host Downtown Farmer’s Markets to help connect the farmers with the local people who want to purchase fresh fruits and veggies for their family.

Families in the Greenville area who are looking for some fresh in-season vegetables, fruit, local honey, gourmet foods, seafood, fresh flowers, diary products, coffee, nuts, baked goods, handmade crafts, woodworking and a wide variety of other goodies from more than 50 vendors can come to downtown Greenville  on Saturday mornings starting May 7th through October 29th.

Easley just started a Downtown Farmer’s Market a few years ago.  It is smaller than the one in Downtown Greenville but for a small community it has a lot of amazing produce to offer.  Each year it has grown bigger with more vendors offering their fresh produce and goods to the local community.
