While the buzz around town is about new businesses, for the July 2024 issue, we’re focused on all that is Locally Grown from veggies to kids with features on local farms, summer activities, and education in the area. Our cover feature showcases Hinton’s Orchard & Farm Market; the farm located in Hodgenville has been blossoming since 2006, offering customers a chance to connect with local agriculture both through farm-fresh produce and baked goods, along with outdoor family fun. In addition to Hinton’s, we have features on The Hardin County Farmers’ Market, Local Farm Families, and John Hardin High School’s Agriscience Programming Plants Seeds for Success—how cool is it that students are raising tilapia? For back to school, we talk about education meeting nature in the Saint James feature Learning in Full Bloom, have a feature on the ECTC BlueOval SK training facility, and highlight Panther Academy’s Cradle Club. LeeAnna Dowan contributed a wonderful article on self-care perfect for the summer season, and in case you’re in the mood for something sweet that will bring a smile, we have the scoop on Kuddy’s Sips and Sweets, which just opened in The Assembly. Baptist Health Hardin honors veteran Jorge Delgado in their article this issue. We are featuring a handful of local events, including the CASA Farm to Fork, which raised over $60,000 to help children in foster care in our community. SAVE THE DATE: Birdies & Burgers benefitting Down Syndrome Association of the Heartland will return with the golf scramble at Heartland Golf Club September 19, followed by a tented party September 20, and the Buddy Walk September 21!
