Thank you so much for your patience and flexibility as our food system faces new challenges.  Many of our farmers and vendors rely on the Market as the primary source of their income.  It is important that we support our vendors so that our growers and producers can stay in business, while we remain vigilant and committed to the health and safety of our Community.
What’s happening? (Updated 5/14/21):
  • Community Farmers Market follows CDC and state guidelines and will not require masking by those who have been fully vaccinated. If you are not yet vaccinated, please continue to wear a mask or face covering while you shop the Market. To view Gov. Andy Beshear's latest Executive Order regarding KY's mask mandate please click here. CFM encourages you to make the choice that is best for you and your family at this time.
  • If you are not comfortable shopping the market at this time, please check out our Curbside Service!
  • An outdoor food court will be available (weather permitting) to coincide with prepared food visits. Indoor food court space is limited to two tables spaced 6ft apart.
