Cravens Greenhouse of Clinton County is one of the 106 markets across the Commonwealth recently accepted into the 2012 Kentucky Farm Bureau Certified Roadside Farm Market Program.

In joining the Kentucky Farm Bureau Certified Roadside Farm Market Program, Cravens Greenhouse has committed to offering quality products and service to its customers. Its acceptance by Farm Bureau tells customers that Cravens Greenhouse meets the highest standards of quality, freshness, and marketing appeal.

Cravens Greenhouse sells a variety of spring vegetable plants, flowers, hanging baskets, and other nursery plants in spring and summer at their market on Cedar Hill Road outside of Albany and at a second location on Burkesville Road across from Westview Shopping Center.

During fall come out to the greenhouse to enjoy fall vegetable plants, mums, pumpkins, fodder shocks, gourds, and our own homemade sorghum molasses.

“The Certified Roadside Farm Market Program was established to help our farmers generate local interest in the wide array of products they produce on the family farm,” said Mark Haney, president of Kentucky Farm Bureau. “Along with promotional efforts designed to attract consumers, the program also partners with farm market owners to educate the public about the importance of locally grown and produced products.”

Brochures that list all of the Certified Roadside Farm Markets across the state are available at Kentucky welcome centers, state resort parks, local chambers of commerce/tourism centers and county Farm Bureau offices. Consumers can also go to the 2012 Certified Roadside Farm Market website–kyfb.com/roadside–for a complete list of markets.
