That direct relationship is what draws many Columbia residents to the market week after week.

The selection at Soda City Market Columbia changes as the growing season progresses. Early in the season, expect cool-weather crops like salad greens, radishes, and herbs.

This seasonal rhythm is something you feel at a farmers market in a way you never do in a grocery store.
