Kentucky Proud

Kentucky Proud The freshest ingredients come from Kentucky farms. Celebrating agriculture across the Commonwealth. Please request to join.

Introduced by the Kentucky Department of Agriculture in 2004, the Kentucky Proud brand was created as a central platform to raise awareness of the Commonwealth’s ever-expanding agricultural efforts and to promote Kentucky’s farm families and farm impact products. In 2008, Kentucky Proud officially became the Commonwealth of Kentucky’s agricultural marketing brand by legislative action and the rest

, as they say, is history! Kentucky Proud promotes locally grown food, farmers’ markets, farm stands, agritourism sites, and many other products and destinations with roots in Kentucky soil. Kentucky Proud products are raised, grown, or processed in Kentucky by Kentuckians. Kentucky Proud Members: We have a group for networking and outreach to other Kentucky Proud members, social media tips, and other relevant news: http://www.facebook.com/groups/kentuckyproud.

“Why do farmers farm, given their economic adversities on top of the many frustrations and difficulties normal to farming? And always the answer is: ‘Love. They must do it for love.’”

- Wendell Berry, may you rest in peace.

Now that’s Kentucky Proud!

At just 13 years old, Barren County’s Gideon Showalter of Maid-N-Meadows, took home a Gold Medal at the 2026 Kentucky State Fair for his family’s farmstead feta cheese made from sheep’s milk and aged in traditional-style basket.

His 14-year old brother, Rowan, also earned a Gold Medal for his Tomme in the Natural Alpine Artisanal category which is a blend of sheep’s and cow’s milk made at their farm in Glasgow, KY. 🧀

They grew it, they cooked it, they crushed it!

The Garden Squash Challenge at the Kentucky State Fair was a delicious reminder that Kentucky-grown food is even better when the next generation gets to grow it, cook it, and put their spin on it.

Congrats to Franklin County High School on taking home the win with their squash soup recipe. And a high round of applause for all the students who brough their school garden-grown creations to the Farm to Fair Cooking Stage!
