Renovated Greenville State Farmers Market Ready to Serve the Community
GREENVILLE – The Greenville State Farmers Market’s newly upgraded facility offers a more accessible and attractive space for customers and vendors alike.
South Carolina Commissioner of Agriculture Hugh Weathers cut the ribbon on the renovated facility at a ceremony Oct. 24.
“This beautiful expanded market facility offers great opportunities for South Carolina farmers and small business owners to connect with the public – and that’s what our State Farmers Markets are all about,” Weathers said. “I’m proud of our team’s work, and I know visitors will enjoy the results.”
The $2.4 million renovation features a new wood-beam canopy entrance to welcome visitors and showcase seasonal displays. Roll-up glass doors in the expanded vendor space provide lots of natural light. Shoppers will find a new walk-in cooler and renovated interior in the area occupied by the market’s longtime grocery vendor, G&G Retail. The renovation also added office space for SCDA’s regional inspectors and updated the market office.
The Greenville State Farmers Market, located at 1354 Rutherford Rd. in Greenville, hosts events including weekly Small Vendor Saturdays and semi-annual Plant and Flower Festivals, all featuring a variety of craft, food, and plant vendors.
The South Carolina Department of Agriculture also manages markets in Florence County and Lexington County.
