Another day, another market report.
This is a picture of a painting of a picture of the friendship fountain in downtown Charleston. I thought that was kind of a cool concept.
This is the church at the end of the market. I still don't know the name of it but I like the steeple.
One of my friends there at the market makes and sells baked goods. These pastries are out of this world.
If you have ever been to Charelston then you know about sweetgrass baskets. There is a lot of work that goes into making them so they tend to be kind of pricey. This lamp is very unique and at a price of $475.00, I think I will pass on it.
It stayed cloudy all day but check out this crowd. The Mayor of Charleston even came down and had breakfast.
Now this is my kind of art. I like the fish plate. How about you?
I like these custom stepping stones too but I don't have anyplace to put them.
Carolina peaches anyone?
Here are some fresh jams and jellies.
This is our neighbor Celeste. She sells free range eggs, fresh milk and great veggies.
And finally we have the Swamp Art guy. I do need to learn all the names but I have trouble with them. These are hand blown glass bowls. I wouldn't let the kids touch though. Some go for as high as $700.00.
Well I hope you enjoyed the market today. I will continue to post pictures from there but not as many next time....I promise.
Have a great day,
Greg

The peaches look scrumptious...as do the pastries! And I like the painting of the cafe on the water that the local artist did.
The baskets look great, too. Although, I would have a hard time paying three digits for one...even though I'm sure they're very well made. :-)
Thanks for the trip!
I love Charleston and going to the market. We also like to go to Hymans Rest.....can't visit Charleston enough...hope to go soon!
Stepping stones? Wouldn't you be afraid to step on them?
This is one great farmers market, Greg! Thanks for taking us along.
And to view the art work, oh love that too!
That painting on top is gorgeous...
Your local artist is wonderful and the picture of the painting of the photo of the fountain is my favorite. Thanks for sharing your Saturday with us. I hope you do it again soon!
Great photos.
I'd like to have been at that market.
