Good morning, Fayette County. The vibrant colors of spring have transformed the Wednesday Farmers Market into a produce paradise. Fresh asparagus, crisp lettuce, and ruby-red rhubarb now fill vendors' tables alongside homemade treats and handcrafted treasures—all waiting for you at the TSC parking lot from 3-6 p.m. It's that magical time when Ohio's bounty begins to shine, bringing the farm-to-table experience right to Columbus Avenue with payment options that make fresh food accessible to everyone.
While local harvests flourish on land, Ohio's waterways are teeming with finned treasures of their own. Clear Fork Reservoir has earned its reputation as a premier bass fishing destination, while Pleasant Hill offers exceptional crappie fishing for anglers of all skill levels. Mark your calendars for June 14-15 when fishing becomes license-free during Ohio's celebration of the sport—perfect timing to hop aboard the Big Blue Bus, which will deliver free summer meals to children at 12 community locations.
