Outcome: Initial Outcome

In May of 2023 the Regional Farmers Market Meeting was held at the Derrikson Agricultural Facility at Morehead State University. This was a multi county effort geared towards vendors participating in Farmers Markets in Rowan, Fleming, Bath, Menifee, Lewis, Carter, Morgan, and Elliot county. Speakers for this event spoke to clients about non cash payments and innovative ways to market their products. Vendors had the option to purchase their Kentucky Proud products. This allowed clients to have a better understanding of options they have as far as payment options and ways to better than business.
