Ashgrove Market, Lexington, KY 40507, US

HistoryThe organization began as the Farm and Garden Market Cooperative Association, The Lexington Farmers' Market is a cooperative run by a Board of Directors elected by the membership. We are fiscally independent and are not part of, nor financially supported by the Lexington Fayette Urban County Government or any other entity. The Lexington Farmers' Market, as we are known to our customers, has developed into a five day per week market during the season. Our normal outdoor season is mid-April until late November, but we operate year-round from December to mid-April. We currently have more than 75 paid members. Many of these farmers only come to the market during the season for their specialties, such as sweet corn or tomatoes, but others come year round with value added or expanded product lines. In 2005, the LFM launched a new Sunday satellite market on Southland Dr. It instantly became a big hit with customers.SpecialtiesWe are a cooperative-owned Farmers' Market. Our vendors specialize in a variety of growing and production methods to bring you outstanding produce. Vendors also supplement and extend the season of many products by high-quality procurement. Our offerings range from honey and organic chickens to strawberries and potatoes! We even have ready-to-eat food at many of our markets.
