Welcome to Bluffton, South Carolina, where charm and modernity converge to offer you the ultimate experience of all-American living! Nestled in a one-square-mile National Historic District, Old Town Bluffton beckons you to start exploring its quaint, mossy-oak-lined streets. Restored cottages housing art galleries, boutiques, and eateries give way to the Gothic-style Church of the Cross, a local landmark built of local cypress before the Civil War. Bluffton seamlessly blends the quaint with the quirky, as seen at the weekly Farmers Market, a community event where locals and tourists gather to buy fresh, locally grown produce, enjoy delicious food, listen to entertainment, and relax with friends.

This vibrant market, born from a grassroots movement in 2006, moved to its present location to serve the public better and promote downtown Bluffton merchants to tourists and locals alike. Referred to as "Old Town Bluffton," this pedestrian-friendly area offers several cultural and historic highlights, such as The Heyward House Historic Center, The May River Theatre, and The Church of the Cross. Visitors are encouraged to appreciate and explore the outdoor spaces around them, where many vendors schedule regular events to bring both locals and tourists together.
