Epicurean Kentuckian: The best tasting tomatoes 2017-08-05 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com(c). According to Mitzi Bault, this tomato is the best tasting one - before it was cut it showed a split across the top, usually smooth side. She was right. The thick slice was perfect, if unfair addition to a the breakfast ribeye Waye Armitage grilled for take out at the the Farmers Market on the Square. Perhaps, photographically, the picture is unfair to the delicacy, served atop grilled peppers & onions on a big hoagie bun. For $6, still one of the great bargains anywhere. The tomatoes were grown by Ricky Bault. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

FM2 has great selection today, but - chicken feet 2017-08-05 - Farmers Market on the Square, Campbellsville & Merchant Streets, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com(c). Farmers Market on the Square was held on one of the most pleasant days of the year, with plenty of produce. Tim Blackaby is here today, but at 7:36 this morning, it appeared he had already sold out of chicken feet. That was not the case, he said. The sign was left over from the week before. And was quickly reversed. There were plenty of apples from Scott's Highland Orchards. Wayne Armitage had breakfasts and lunches of ribeye sandwiches, great ones. Kellis Booth's popular pastries booth was set up. David Herbst said that his peach season - his most successful yet - was sold out two weeks earlier than last year. But customers were buying apples by the half peck, and he had sweet, seedless, watermelons at the best prices seen this year. It was the first day of the market without a Square Meals Cafe, badly missed. And the crowd was down, but vendors said buying was good. And they noted that the US 127 Yard Sale today syphoned off some regulars, and a large number of folks went to the other big event at the same time, The Southern Kentucky Outdoor Expo. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
