Bluegrass Farmers Market
14 Apr Wed 2010
Opening Day Is Here!
The 2010 Bluegrass Farmers' Market season opens this Saturday and we're thrilled to be back! Fast Signs and Pedal the Planet have once again decided that we are welcome in their beautiful tree lined parking lot and we thank them so much. It's so convenient for our farmers and our customers. The farmers can just pull in and the customers don't have to pay to park or walk very far. It doesn't get better than that...except for the fact that everything you find at our market was either grown, baked, raised or made by the actual farmer. That means you are guaranteed that you are buying local and not something from a terminal or auction like the grocery stores.
There is a downside to be being homegrown only. It means that you won't find corn, tomatoes or green beans yet...they are not in season in Kentucky. What you will find is homegrown freshness!
Here's a bit of what you will find on opening day...
Judy will be bringing her wonderful homemade jams and fresh spring asparagus
Vicki will be bringing her beautiful plants including some herb baskets
Lauren and Brandon will be bringing their fabulous ASH free beef
Karin and Drew will be set up with a full selection of their herb seasoning and homemade soaps
Roger will not have any tomatoes yet, but he sure will have information and orders forms for purchasing plants to grow in your own garden
And, a little bird told us that we will see gorgeous spring bouquets of lilacs and some other surprises too! Like lettuce!!!
We're so excited and hope you all come join us on opening day, Saturday April 17th! We'll be there with smiles on our faces and wonderful goodies for you to enjoy.
