A Day in the Life: Experiencing the Farmer’s Markets Near Shibby RV Living

There’s nothing quite like a sunny Saturday morning at a local farmer’s market—fresh coffee in hand, the scent of baked goods in the air, and rows of homegrown fruits, veggies, and handmade goods just waiting to be discovered. If you’re staying at Shibby RV Living, you’re perfectly positioned to explore some of the best farmer’s markets near Greenville, including those in Fountain Inn and Woodruff, SC.

Here’s a glimpse at what a perfect day exploring local flavors and community life can look like.

Morning: Starting Off at the Fountain Inn Farmers Market

Just a few minutes from our Fountain Inn location, the Fountain Inn Farmers Market is a local favorite that takes over Commerce Park every Saturday morning during the warmer months. As you stroll through the booths, you’ll find everything from vine-ripened tomatoes and sweet corn to homemade jams, fresh eggs, and artisan breads.

What makes this market truly special is the people—local growers and small business owners who are happy to chat about how they grow their produce or make their handcrafted goods. Grab a bag of peaches, pick up a fresh loaf of sourdough, and maybe even find a handmade candle or two for your RV.

Don’t be surprised if you hear live music playing in the background—it’s part of what makes the Fountain Inn Farmers Market feel like more than just shopping. It’s a community gathering.

Midday: Cooking Up Local Goodness Back at Shibby RV Living

After your morning market haul, head back to your RV and whip up a quick, fresh lunch with your finds. Grill up some farm-raised sausage, toss a salad with crisp cucumbers and cherry tomatoes, or create a charcuterie spread with local cheeses, pickles, and preserves.

With your RV kitchen just steps away from the great outdoors, you can enjoy your lunch al fresco at your site or in a shaded picnic area. There's something deeply satisfying about cooking with local produce from Woodruff, SC and the surrounding areas—knowing exactly where your food came from and supporting the people who grew it.

Afternoon: Discovering Hidden Gems in Woodruff

Later in the day, head over to Woodruff, the future home of our second Shibby RV location and a town that’s quietly becoming a hub for small businesses and community events. While Woodruff doesn’t yet host a weekly farmers market, you’ll often find pop-up produce stands and roadside vendors offering homegrown goods—especially during the summer harvest season.

Whether it’s a stand with just-picked strawberries or a family-run booth with jars of pickled okra and chow-chow, these local treasures make exploring Woodruff even more rewarding. Be sure to ask about the origin of the goods—many are grown just down the road from where you’re staying.

Evening: Unwind with a Taste of the Upstate

Wrap up your day with a cool drink and a sweet treat made from the fruits of your market adventure. You might even meet fellow RVers who spent their day doing the same—comparing market finds, exchanging recipes, and soaking in the small-town charm that makes Fountain Inn and Woodruff feel like home.

Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or settling in for a longer stay, exploring the farmer’s markets near Greenville is a must-do experience during your time at Shibby RV Living.
