Connecting our community through fresh food, local goods, education, and hospitality, while investing in the sustainability and resilience of local farmers and makers.
Our Vendors
During the Spring and Summer season we average more than 70 regular farmers and vendors at each of our weekly markets, making the Travelers Rest Farmers Market the largest independently-run, nonprofit farmers market in the state.
The Travelers Rest Farmers Market first began in 2009 with a handful of local farmers and vendors, and was held in the parking lot of Sunrift Adventures. The TR Farmers Market then officially became designated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2014.
From the familiar local faces that come on a weekly basis, to those visiting from out of town and experiencing the market for the first time - we stir up quite a bit of foot traffic throughout the year with more than 60,000 people attending the market during our 2023 season.
Not only is the market a place for community, fun and education - it’s also an important source of revenue for the local farmers and vendors that sell at the market, and other local businesses within the city. Our market helps numerous farmers, vendors and small business owners make a living doing what they love, and makes a direct impact on the health of our local Upstate economy as a whole.
“LOVE TR Farmers Market. They have yoga at 8:30, which is just awesome. Tons of great food and produce, as well as local creations ranging from candles to tea to essential oils and more. Just wonderful. Highly recommended.”
Whether you’re an individual looking for fun opportunities to volunteer and meet new people, or a business who’s looking for team building activities with their staff and effective ways to generate brand awareness in the community, there are numerous ways to get involved with the Travelers Rest Farmers Market!
