Are you taking full advantage of the Farmers Markets? There are lots of them around - check out any Thursday's Charleston Scene section of the Post & Courier, or see our earlier blog with a listing of the larger ones. As you drive around, you may also see smaller vendors set up in various locations. It's a great way to find bargains on fresh fruits and vegetables, and also support your neighbors.
