"Eating is an agricultural act." - Wendell Berry, Kentucky Author
In celebration of National Agriculture Week and National Nutrition Month®, we visit this week with Sharon Spencer of the Kentucky Department of Agriculture (KDA). Sharon discusses our Kentucky Farmers Markets which can be found in almost every county in the state and how they are important to local economies and cultures. She also discusses the Plate it up! Kentucky Proud project, an important partnership between the Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service, KDA, and the UK Department of Dietetics and Human Nutrition.
