Outdoor adventures abound in the Palmetto State and perhaps none are more family-friendly (even the dog is welcome!) or more lively than the year-round farmers market dubbed “Soda City Market” found on Main Street and only steps from the statehouse.

With the majestic dome looking on, the Soda City Market encompasses three long city blocks on Main Street in Columbia.

Even in the chilling days of winter, you can head to Columbia, park for free, and stroll down Main enjoying the sights and sounds of this awesome marketplace. Expect to find artisans selling crafts of all kinds, including paintings, hand-crafted woodwork, pottery, and more!
