Bluegrass Farmers Market

It's the weekend before the 4^th of July and certainly a time to celebrate the reason it's a holiday. The 4^th is also known as Independence Day in commemoration of the the signing of the Declaration of Independence. I can't think of a more independent group of people than American farmers. They work the soil, they put their sweat and equity into making sure that the people of our United States of America get to enjoy the wholesome goodness that their hours of dedication provide. So, on this Independence Day weekend, we celebrate the privilege of being able to provide only the very best locally grown fruits and vegetables for your 4^th of July picnic! :)

Both market locations will have all sorts of goodies available...here's a sampling of what will be available.
