If you're a food or produce vendor looking to reach locals and visitors in the Horry County area, the Surfside Beach Farmers Market offers a solid weekly opportunity during the warmer months. Running every Tuesday from May through late October, this market operates from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the intersection of Surfside Drive and Willow Drive in Surfside Beach, SC. The timing captures both the summer tourist season and the fall harvest period, making it ideal for vendors with seasonal offerings or year-round products. This farmers market draws the kind of crowd that actively seeks fresh, local food and artisanal products. You'll find shoppers looking for everything from just-picked produce and fresh-baked goods to local cheese, eggs, seafood, and cut flowers. The market also attracts crafters and makers, so there's room for both food-focused vendors and complementary handmade goods. The beach community setting means you're reaching both residents and seasonal visitors who tend to shop at farmers markets during their time in the area. What makes this market particularly vendor-friendly is its commitment to accessibility. The market accepts multiple payment methods including credit cards, which is essential for modern shoppers, as well as SNAP/EBT benefits and WIC programs. This means your potential customer base includes families using government food assistance programs, broadening your reach beyond cash-only shoppers. The acceptance of Senior FMNP vouchers also indicates the market draws an older demographic, which can be valuable for certain product categories. The weekly Tuesday schedule from May through October gives you consistent, predictable selling days over a six-month season. This is long enough to build regular customers who know when and where to find you, but short enough that it's manageable if you're juggling multiple markets or splitting your time between farmers markets and other sales channels. The Surfside Beach location positions you well within the larger Horry County market ecosystem.
