Pendleton Farmers Market - Thursdays 4 to 6 and Saturdays 10 to 1

,

The Pendleton Farmers Market is held on the beautiful historic Village Green in Pendleton, South Carolina.  It is such a wonderful experience just to see the colorful array of fresh produce with a picturesque background of the Farmers Hall.  Many farmers, growers, crafters and gardeners come to the square to sell their wares.  Pendleton High School's FFA often comes to sell the products of their school garden.  It is so refreshing to see young people involved in this community event. 

One of our locals said "You can smell the freshness at the Pendleton Farmers Market" so come to Pendleton SC and enjoy the experience!

Are you coming to Freedom Fest July 2nd at Veterans Park?

Freedom Fest is so much fun for the whole family so come on out and join the fun!  Bring your chair and come early to eat a great hamburger or get one of Hevy's Funnel Cakes and then play a game or two of Bingo.  The children will enjoy the Inflatables, games and activities. 
One of the highlights of Freedom Fest is the Salute To Our Heroes which is organized by Friends of the Park Volunteer, Faye Ladd, who is also very active in the American Legion Post 113 Auxiliary.  Faye and her American Legion Friends have a display of photos and memorial from local Veterans.  Be sure to stop by her booth next to the stage to see all they have.  You will enjoy running into Uncle Sam who will be giving out Free American Flags (made in the USA).
