Earth Mother Market



It was a sunny and pleasant day in Fort Thomas, where the debut of Earth Mother Market took place. Northern Kentucky's newest farmer's market, which consists of wholly Certified Naturally Grown and Organic farms that are owned or managed by women, had people standing in line when the market opened. Five vendors were on hand for the day, and local television and newspapers covered the event. Napoleon Ridge was supposed to have been there with our eggs, but a conflict arose. None the less, we did stop by at 6pm, and business was booming. We even bought plants for the farm that we did not have. The market will be every Wednesday from 3-7 at 1038 S. Fort Thomas Avenue, Stables Building in the Midway district of Fort Thomas. It looks like it is going to be a well attended market, and there are lots of great surprises planned. Next week, the Atwood Pickers bluegrass band will be playing from 5-6pm, Future plans will include cooking demonstrations, flower arranging, clogging and so much more. How exciting!
