Bluegrass Farmers Market

Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather. It was so nice to be able to open the windows and air the house out today...and in August no less! But, never fear, summer is still with us and the air conditioners will be working full force next week.

School has started in most areas and the pools will soon close. For some reason folks think that farmers markets close too. We do not! In fact, the Bluegrass Farmers' Market will be open through the end of October! We are actually going to celebrate going back to school on August 31st. Make sure you mark your calendars because we will be giving away a limited number of insulated lunch totes!

We'll be set up in the beautiful tree lined parking lot of Pedal the Planet and Fast Signs, right next door to the Glenn Auto Mall on Richmond Rd. It's just a hop, skip and a jump outside of Man 'O War Blvd. Parking is right there so you don't have to drive around hunting for a spot to park. The parking lot is also paved and that makes it very stroller and wheelchair friendly!
