The growing trend towards home grown and local produce is set to be showcased at the inaugural Kentucky Progress Association Seasonal Produce and Craft Market on Sunday, December 11, 2011 at the Kentucky Memorial Hall.
This will be the first of regular seasonal markets, with produce on sale reflecting the growing season. The market will have a Christmas theme, with Santa for the kids and local entertainment.
To date there are 25 various stall-holders, with some local businesses and live produce a feature.
The Kentucky Progress Association is inviting the people of the New England region to come along and have a great day out in Kentucky and be a part of this significant occasion for the community.
The Kentucky Progress Association (KPA) is a community group who meet monthly to discuss ideas and ways of working together to improve the village and surrounding area for the benefit of the entire community and its visitors. The KPA has held fundraising events, community BBQs and been involved in establishing and maintaining the ‘Kids of Kentucky’ group – which holds regular activities for the youth of the community. The KPA is always seeking new and exciting ventures; at present the establishment of a quarterly market is our focus.
Featuring local Kentucky businesses, local produce and locally made crafts, each market will be held in the Kentucky Memorial Hall on the 2nd Sunday of each season, with a 9.00am start and 1.00pm finish.
