Hartsville -- Saturday is Good Living Marketplace

One of the interesting things to come out of the Selling Hartsville launch of early October was the "Good Living" Marketplace that was set up the first Saturday of October in downtown Hartsville's Cargill Way. This was the first Saturday of what founders Nancy Myers and Judi Elvington (Executive Director Hartsville Downtown Development - sponsors)hope become a lasting first Saturday tradition. The participation of people is what will decide. From what I hear the event has already grown from about 32 vendors to more than 45 for the first Saturday of November. It is certainly a great addition to the community and one of the Pleasant Surprises of being in Hartsville.

  1. It was indeed a good start. Among the interesting discoveries our family made that day was Ovis Hill Farm. Since then, we've visited the farm itself and look forward to returning for festivals and their produce. Events like this help citizens discover the richness of the local region. I hope that this month's market will have even more participating vendors and visitors!
