At the center of this growing movement is Side Hustle Brewing, a cornerstone of Bluffton’s craft beer scene.

At Side Hustle, every sip tells a story—one of bold flavors, adventurous ingredients, and deep respect for the craft. Whether you’re a first-time taster or a seasoned connoisseur, the team makes you feel part of something bigger: a community built on the love of great beer.

Because at Side Hustle, a side hustle isn’t just a job—it’s a way of life. And that philosophy extends beyond the brewery taproom. Their vision is to anchor community-driven events like the Sunday Farmers Market—helping local farmers, food trucks, and makers grow, while creating spaces where neighbors gather, connect, and celebrate.


Why This Farmers Market Matters in Beaufort County

Sunday timing for families: Many working families in Bluffton and greater Beaufort County find weekday markets difficult to attend. Scheduling the market on a Sunday opens access, connection and community for everyone.

Local first: Growers, artisans and food makers from Bluffton, Okatie, Hardeeville, St Helena Island and beyond are featured, putting local flavor and local economy front and center.

Community-driven venue: Side Hustle Brewing serves as more than a taproom — it's a gathering space rooted in craftsmanship, connection and collaboration. Their support anchors the market and makes this Sunday experience possible.

Celebrating Lowcountry heritage: From Gullah-tradition farms to regenerative poultry and coastal microgreens, this market shines a light on South Carolina’s rich agrarian roots and emerging sustainable food scene.
