The Martin L. Eubanks Award
In addition to the People’s Choice Awards, Fresh on the Menu honors one restaurant each year with the Martin L. Eubanks Award, recognizing the legacy of Martin Eubanks and his extraordinary dedication and service to South Carolina agriculture.
This prestigious award honors a restaurant that demonstrates exceptional support for local farmers and exemplifies the values of the Certified South Carolina program — a program Martin was instrumental in developing. The recipient is selected annually by the South Carolina Department of Agriculture in partnership with the Eubanks family.
