Glasgow, KY seminar offers ideas for greater gardening income Growers interesting in selling fresh food products to high-end restaurants & consumers can learn more at this meeting in Glasgow, KY <>"This program is being sponsored by the Kentucky Entrepreneurial Coaches Institute, which I belong to," writes Barbara Armitage. "I met Tim Will while I was on a trip to North Carolina last summer - I spent the day talking with the farmers/growers/producers that participate in this program many with less than an acre in production. I was very impressed with their ability to harvest and deliver fresh fruits and vegetables to market in less than 24 hours. I think that Adair County could benefit from this program." Submitted by Barbara Armitage Gary (Doc) Hogan, working with the Kentucky Entrepreneurial Coaches Institute, will be sponsoring an informative meeting for growers interested in selling fresh food products to high end restaurants and consumers. The meeting will be held at the Barren County Extension Office Auditorium, 1463 West Main ST (MAP), Glasgow, KY, on Monday January 24, 2011, at 6pmCT.

Country store closing lament and remembrance: Manton, KY Editorial note: Bringing back these important community centers is much harder than supporting them in the first place. Wonder why it is? We think nothing of a $10 tip on a high dollar Bowling Green meal and rarely tip in a country store, but fuss about an extra quarter for a loaf of bread, conveniently close to home. Our neighborhood store has stocked that bread for us - and saved us so much more in gas, and, more importantly, time than a trip to town could save. The closing of this wonderful country store in Washington Co., KY is an all too frequent happening, an all to frequent chipping away at our heritage and an idyllized lifestyle, all because we succumb to perceived short term economies. Isn't it time to have two tip jars in community general stores and deli's: One for generous tips for employees, and a second one, even bigger, for the proprietors.-CM Click on headline for full Kenny Browning story plus his wonderful photo 'Loafers will suffer the most' By Kenny Browning, the Feedman One of my favorite places to stop for lunch or a cold drink closed last week after a eighty-five year run. The time of country stores dotting the crossroads of rural America has come and gone. The purpose of any business is to make a profit, and if it can't it has to go. With this being said I'm still going to miss this place. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2011-01-16 06:18:40 | Comments | Printable version
