(Ad) Adair County Farmers Market - Fri 17 Aug 2018
The Adair County Farmers Market, Parking Lot, Adair County Extension Office, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY, is OPEN 6am-10amCT, TODAY, (or until sold out), Friday, Aug 17, 2018 with the following:
- One of the Kings of Corn, David Burris - Portland, KY - is here with a truckload of 901 Yellow Sweet Corn. "The best we've had all year," he said. At 6:53 he's the only one here. His partner, Junior Brown, is on a Good Samaritan errand this morning, aiding his fellow man - which he does often when not out chasing fugitives on his four-wheeler in the neighborhood. "Better come on down," David Burris said. "Today and tomorrow looks like the last of the sweet corn this season." He's still giving your choice of a Baker's Dozen or Methodist Dozen - either way, 13 fat sweet ears of corn for $4.
Remember, the Adair Farmers Market is open Tuesdays and Fridays, 6am-10amCT, with parking just a few feet away from all the stalls. We look forward to seeing you in the cool of the early morning, when selection is its very best. (Sponsored)

Adair Farmers Market - A portrait in dedication



2018-08-17 - Adair County Farmers Market, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Gale Cowan, Deputy to Marketing Agent Beth Cowan, for the Kings of Corn .

Gale Cowan writes, "The kings of corn are very dedicated," with this picture of her father, David Burris. The plural "kings" was used because the other King of Corn, Commissioner Junior Brown, was on a Good Samaritan mission dedicated to helping his fellow man. Mr. Brown is very apt to be at the market when not digressing for a good cause - helping legislate for water, sewer, and natural gas pipelines, tracking down fugitives in the Portland neighborhood, or missing too many meals out doing good deeds. - CM
