Bluegrass Farmers Market

This is a special weekend, it's Labor Day! The first Labor Day was celebrated on September 5, 1882. It was a day to pay tribute to the creators of our nations strength, freedom and leadership...the American worker! I can't think of a better American worker than the farmer. Without farmers there would be nothing else...we have to eat in order to fuel our bodies so that we can work. Please join us in showing your support for the American farmer on Labor Day by shopping at a local farmers market. Of course, we hope you choose Lexington's only 100% homegrown/produced market...the Bluegrass Farmers' Market!

Now for a few reminders...

The Bluegrass Farmers' Market will be open, at the Richmond Rd. location, through October 27th!

The SFMNP (Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program) and the FMNP (WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program) vouchers will expire soon, make sure you check the date on your voucher!

And, just in case you have not voted for the Bluegrass Farmers' Market, you can do it at www.farmland.org/vote Just had to get that in again! Lol

Mark your calendars, October 20 th is going to be a special day to say thank you to all of our customers. We thank you all of the time but we kinda thought a special day was in order. We'll be giving away some really neat new market tote bags, pumpkin decorating for the kids, singing and dancing along with a DJ, etc. It'll be a great day and a great way to say thank you to our customers for a great 2012 market season.
