Looking back on 2022, the Olde Beaufort Farmers’ Market enjoyed its most successful year ever! Our vendor numbers grew along with the fresh food and quality artisan work that our local farmers, food producers, and artisans offered. Non-profit community organizations and member businesses informed shoppers of their resources, and the market hummed with the energy of folks enjoying our hometown event each weekend on the courthouse square.
Enjoy revisiting some of our special events and market scenes here.
