Farmers Market Month for South Carolina

Posted on Posted in Top Ag Headlines Tagged with ,

August is here, and with the month comes National Farmers' Market Month, and National Farmers' Market Week August 5th through the 11th.  SC Ag Commissioner Hugh Weathers says that the state's farmers' markets will be in full swing with celebrations, especialy the state markets. 

Direct-to-consumer marketing has become a vital part of South Carolina's agriculture, and Weathers believes that the farmers' market system plays a vital role in that concept.
