As the warm summer days begin to fade away and we start to feel the crispness of autumn in the air, there’s an exciting event on the horizon for all the plant lovers and gardeners out there! Yes, you guessed it! The South Carolina State Farmers Market is gearing up for its much-anticipated Fall Plant and Flower Festival. This lively three-day event will take place on October 4th through 6th, 2024, and it promises to be a delightful experience for everyone who attends.
The festival will kick off on Friday, October 4th and run through Sunday, October 6th. Attendees can dive into the festivities on Friday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. If you’re looking to spruce up your garden or add a pop of color to your home, this is the place to be! The South Carolina State Farmers Market, located at 3483 Charleston Hwy., West Columbia, will be buzzing with activity.
So, what can you look forward to finding at the festival? A whole range of fall plants and flowers, including vibrant pumpkins that are perfect for those autumn decorations, will be available to shop. And it’s not just about plants! Creative vendors will showcase a wonderful assortment of home, yard, and garden décor, along with unique handcrafted crafts that you won’t want to miss. Plus, there will be Certified SC Grown fall produce on offer, giving you the chance to stock up on fresh, local goodies!
One of the festival highlights is the presence of Master Gardeners. They will be there throughout the weekend to answer any burning questions about fall planting. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just starting out, this is an excellent opportunity to get some professional advice and tips to ensure your fall garden flourishes!
And for those wondering about entry fees, guess what? Admission and parking are absolutely free! However, organizers suggest bringing your own wagons to help carry your plant treasures home, as the market will have a limited number available on a first-come, first-served basis. Load up those wagons and have a blast exploring everything the festival has to offer!
