If you're like me, nothing beats the taste of fruits and veggies straight from the garden. And, if your REALLY like me (and that means NO green thumb), that means that the best veggies are coming from someone elses garden!
Check out the weekly Farmer's Market of Bluffton for an awesome selection of seasonal fruits and veggies, honey, pasta and more. Not to mention the best local barbeque, gumbo, seafood, baked goods and icey goodness. And, not that I'm biased, but one thig I love is that the Bluffton market does not allow craft vendors, so it's just what you can eat - and that's what you WANT at a farmer's market, isn't it?
Plus, you get live music, a great place to take the kids and the charm of Old Town Bluffton. Now that's a combo that's hard to beat!
