We had a wonderful day at the Farmers’ Market today! 🌽🍅 It was great to see so many community members come out to shop local, enjoy samples, and learn more about healthy living.

A special thank you to Baptist Health Deaconess Madisonville’s own Leslie Allen, APRN, for joining us and connecting with visitors throughout the event. We were also excited to share more about the Food Is Medicine collaboration.

We are incredibly proud of this partnership and the impact it is making across Kentucky. It’s inspiring to see organizations come together to improve health and wellness through nutrition, education, and community collaboration. 💚
