Two blocks of downtown Greenville’s Main Street are converted into a lively farmers’ market every Saturday morning from the beginning of May through the end of October. Thousands of people visit the TD Saturday Market every week to buy locally sourced goods (all food must be grown or produced within 100 miles of Greenville and crafters are highly-encouraged to use locally-sourced supplies). Most come for the fresh produce or handcrafted pastas and cheeses, but some make it a summertime ritual—a place to meet friends over a decadent breakfast pastry or a place for the kids to jig and jive to local musicians in the warm summer air—and others come to watch a local chef demonstrate his or her skills in the kitchen.
