Bounty of the Barrens Market

FAQ about Bounty of the Barrens Market 2015:
The market will be in its winter location at the Barren County Cooperative Extension Office, on second and fourth Saturday mornings from now through mid April!
We are going to have some very cool enhancements to the 2015 market. We are reworking our layout to allow the vendors to be closer together so it is easier for our patrons to visit all of the vendor tents. We are also happy to announce that we will have a special guest vendor each Saturday -- someone with some special item that is not normally seen at the market. We will have more on this later.
Want to be a vendor at this year's BOTBFM? Click here for information about becoming a vendor.
NOTICE!
Keep monitoring this spot and our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/sustainableglasgow for information about upcoming music performances and other events at the market.
We also have a Facebook page now for the market at www.facebook.com/botbfm check it out too!

A picture is worth a thousand words!
Vendor Turnout was VERY disappointing.
I would have loved to be there. I plan to be at the next one, but this weekend I was at the Glasgow Highland Games. I hope BOTB continues to grow!
So sorry GlasgowCitizen, but the vendors at BOTBM are all actual producers. Since they cannot import produce from elsewhere (our rules are strict and allow only food which is actually produced by the vendor), the weather is a big factor in what they have for sale.
Give us and the weather a little time and the number of vendors, as well as the products they bring, will dramatically increase. We now have over 30 vendors committed to be at the market when they have produce available.
Just hang on and roll with mother nature. She will dampen your disappointment!
