This Massive And Fun Farmers Market In South Carolina Encompasses Three Long City Blocks

Outdoor adventures abound in the Palmetto State and perhaps none are more family-friendly (even the dog is welcome!) or more lively than the year-round farmers market dubbed “Soda City Market” found on Main Street and only steps from the statehouse.

With the majestic dome looking on, the Soda City Market encompasses three long city blocks on Main Street in Columbia.
