Nothing perks up the weekend like a trip to the local farmers’ market and returning home with a basket of fresh fruits and veggies from local growers. But what if we told you there is a farmers’ market that’s open six days a week – and it’s in a huge open-air shed, so you can stay dry and cooler under the cover of shade?

It’s all true at the gigantic Pee Dee State Farmers’ Market in Florence.

You’ll score loads of locally and regionally grown veggies, that somehow taste oh-so much better than the ones you buy in the store.
