Our Market was started approximately around or before the Depression of 1929, when the Clemson Cooperative Extension grjoup iin Orangeburg County wanted a place for farm women in Orangeburg County and the surrounding area to sell their farm produce and related farm products. This farm market moved approximately three times, because it outgrew its space, to a place which was built by the market women and their husbands. At one time, there were more sellers than space at the present location, but age and death took its toll, until my mother, age 95, is the sole original member. Now she spends from 5-7 or 8 hours a day, with her grandsons help, growing produce and helping preserve food to sell at this market yet.
