Cumberland County Extension Office hosted a Farm to Fork event on July 21st, 2023, at the Morgan Farm in Burkesville, KY. This event was to raise awareness of local KY Proud produce and meat and fundraise for Feed My Sheep Food Pantry. The county received partial funding through Kentucky Department of Agriculture to host the event. Roughly, 110 individuals participated in the event, including Sharon Spencer from the Kentucky Department of Agriculture. A KY Proud meal made up of items from Cherry Farms, Kenny’s Farmhouse Cheese, Jude Holler Farms, Garmon’s Farm and Produce, Ale 8-One and Chaney’s Dairy Barn was a huge highlight of the event. Participants were able to enjoy a flower bar presented by Jude Holler Farm where they could make their own bouquet to take home. At the end of the event a total of $2,145.00 was raised for Feed My Sheep Food Pantry.
