Myrtle Beach Area Farmers Markets: Complete Seasonal Guide and Locations

Every May 1, farmers market season officially begins along the Grand Strand in the Myrtle Beach area, coinciding with the start of ocean swimming season. Horry County, home to Myrtle Beach, boasts a rich agricultural heritage that predates its tourism dominance. Today, local farms supply exceptional seasonal produce, meats, eggs, honey, and more to these vibrant markets.

The Waccamaw Market Cooperative has elevated the scene by organizing vendors, coordinating schedules across county locations, and promoting these events. Markets have expanded in size and quality, offering fresh goods alongside live music, free yoga, and family activities—perfect for selecting dinner ingredients.
