| - Providence Farms Produce is on Providence Road at Ballantyne Commons Parkway, in the parking lot of the Shell gas station on the northwest corner. This place is small, but has your regular fruit and veggie staples. This is a great little place to visit for locally grown produce if you don't want to make the trek to the big farmers market out by the airport. You will find tomatoes (South Carolina grown, and they are delicious!), eggplant, squash, zucchini, potatoes, melons, berries, apples, limes, lemons, peppers.
Prices are better than your grocery store, and the quality is great.
Tips:
- Parking is OK, but can get tight at times with convenience store patrons.
- This location is seasonal, so don't count on it during the winter.
- The easiest way to enter is by driving south on Providence Road and turning right into the gas station.
- If you are driving east on Ballantyne Commons Parkway, your best bet is to make a U-turn at the Providence Road traffic light, then immediately turn into the gas station parking lot on the right. If you were to turn left onto Providence Road, you'd have to make an immediate left across two lanes of southbound Providence traffic (not smart), plus the turn lane (really not smart).
- If you play the lottery, you can grab tickets while you're here.
