TD Saturday Market on Main Street

TD Saturday Market is in the midst of its 17th season, bringing farm-fresh produce, baked goods, meats, cheeses, seafood, and other specialty foods to downtown Greenville each week.

This year’s market will also feature a new Holiday Market scheduled for December 14.

The market launched its 2019 season earlier in the year with a record 80 vendors, including returning vendors Bake Room, Beechwood Farms, Bellews Market, Greenbrier Farms, Sixteen Acre Wood, Merciful Hearts Farm, Swamp Rabbit Café & Grocery, and The Happy Berry.

Once again, TD Bank has partnered with the City of Greenville for the TD Bank Bucks program, which was created to support local farmers. Vendors were invited to apply for TD Bank Bucks to fund their market fees for the full season and this year’s recipients are Tyger Valley Farm, JBo Ranch, and Nellie T’s.

“TD Bank is proud to partner with the City of Greenville for the 17th season as the title sponsor of the TD Saturday Market,” said David Lominack, South Carolina Market President for TD Bank, America’s Most Convenient Bank®. “We are excited to support these three deserving vendors through our TD Bank Bucks program, and we look forward to visiting them, along with the other farmers and vendors, for another successful season.”

Along with providing fresh produce each week, the market will feature the Spuds & Sprouts program presented by Prisma Health. The free program will offer weekly programming that will educate children about some of the fresh fruits and vegetables available at the market. In addition, children will have the opportunity to sample different fruits and vegetables and make crafts related to agriculture.

“Prisma Health is proud to support the TD Saturday Market and the Spuds & Sprouts program. Spuds & Sprouts teaches children about healthy eating while engaging them in fun food-related activities. Our purpose is to inspire health, serve with compassion and be the difference. We believe the TD Saturday Market provides a unique opportunity to do just that,” said Robin Stelling, Manager of Community Relations for Prisma Health–Upstate.

Market shoppers can visit the Lowes Foods Front Porch all season long to enjoy a variety of free interactive activities, including live acoustic music, culinary demonstrations by local chefs and farmers and Spuds & Sprouts presented by Prisma Health. The area also features the Booth with a Cause for nonprofits and the Youth Booth, which provides young entrepreneurs an opportunity to showcase and sell their work to market shoppers.

The TD Saturday Market welcomes the use of Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards and market shoppers who spend at least $5 on their EBT card will receive a free $10 token for the purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables. To use an EBT card at the market, shoppers can visit the TD Saturday Market tent located at the intersection of Main Street and McBee Avenue.

Recognized as a Top 20 Event in the Southeast, the TD Saturday Market is open Saturdays, May 4 through October 26 (excluding October 12), from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm on Main Street at McBee Avenue.

Additional special events include Penske Touch-a-Truck Day, Autumn Harvest and Holiday Market. Market shoppers can park for free from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm in the lot next to Grill Marks courtesy of Soby’s.
