Charleston farmers market

By

I was lucky enough to take an impromptu stroll through the Charleston Farmer’s Market on Saturday morning. Although it was suffocatingly hot, there is something so nice about an hour to yourself, wandering through the crowds, people watching and taking it all in.

From April to December, on Saturday mornings, an array of vendors gather in Marion Square on the corner of King and Calhoun Streets in downtown Charleston. Fresh produce, food + drinks, and crafts of all kinds abound. Several of my Artist Market buddies vend here as well — including Perla Anne, Charleston Soap Chef, Add Libb Designs, and Rewined.

After walking through and taking it all in, I took up a spot in the window at a coffee shop nearby and downed a bottle of water. People-watching from an air conditioned window seat has its perks too ;-)

what was your weekend like?

    oh, it looks lovely! I think it’s so nice to see fresh, locally grown produce.

    I hope you’re surviving the heat.

      They were pretty good actually! So many different vendors too that I’m sure you could bargain a bit if you wanted to :-)

    It looks very nice! In Norway we just have this for about two-three months of the year in summer…(basically that’s how long/short summer is!) and I love to get my fruit and vegetables from a local farmers market. That purple flower-tree is beautiful!

    Hey, Sarah. Thanks for the Charleston Farmer’s Market reminder. Many times I let downtown traffic be a deterrent. Must make the effort though. And, congrats on your marriage!!!!

      Thank you Debbie! I would definitely make time to visit the farmer’s market – I am the same way though, I don’t make it there often. But worth it if you can!
