Organic/Slow Food Options in Lex

[nlschr0]

lexingtongal - I couldn't get the link to pull up. Is it Congleton Farms? I've heard good things about their beef but never tried it.

[lexingtongal]

Sorry. Yes, it's Congleton Beef. If you're interested I can DM you a contact phone and/or email address for them.

Thank you everyone for all of your great info! I'm impressed by the variety of places that support organic and locally grown food. Hurrah for KY and Lexington. As we plan for our move there in the near future, I am reassured that there will be plenty of yummy and healthy food for us to eat. Thanks again...you are very helpful!

[Wanna move]

Thanks for asking that question!
We are considering a move from the San Diego area to a small town within 30 miles of Lexington. I have MCS, an environmental illness so am very concerned with food and air quaility. Are there any other MCS folks out there?

Thanks

I wanted to let you and everyone else that has responded to this post know about a new restaurant that just opened in Lexington. Roots Restaurant, on Romany road, opened around mid-December. The restaurant's focus is using local and organic ingredients and preparing simple but delicious meals that highlight the flavors of the quality food product being used. I am the Pastry Chef at Roots, and after seeing the way other restaurants are run, I would highly recommend Roots as a place that you can trust to provide fresh and healthy dishes while also supporting the local farming community. I hope that you all will give it a try!!!

I actually ate at Roots two nights ago and it was delicious! I'll definitely be back. I personally don't know any other restaurants off hand that serve organic produce, etc.

Thanks for the info! I put it on my shortlist when lexingtongal mentioned it, but haven't made it there yet...It will definitely have to be a place to go soon.
