Kentucky Hemp Days
Saturday, June 9th, 2018
The Kentucky Hemp Industry has blossomed over the past five years and continues to grow every day. In fact, the largest and first hemp field in the state of Kentucky is located right here in Harrison County. Where tobacco was once king, Hemp is quickly rising to become the top Kentucky crop grown in our state. What better way to celebrate the past and future of Kentucky Hemp than with a festival?
On Saturday, June 9th, 2018 we will do just that. Cynthiana will be hosting the first hemp festival of its kind in Kentucky, Kentucky Hemp Days at the end of National Hemp History Week. Come down for a celebration of hemp through artisan vendors, live music, hemp infused beer and foods, legislative forums, hemp farm tours and more! We hope to make this an annual festival and grow every year.
Interested in being a vendor? On the following page you will find a contract and guidelines for all vendors. You are encouraged to sell your goods at the event and sell items that are hemp related (rope, soaps, oils, sprays, food, etc.) You do not have to sell hemp related items, but all items must be handmade, locally made or Kentucky Proud in order to be considered.
The vendor fee is $60.00 for non-chamber members, $50.00 for members. The deadline to register as a vendor is May 24th, 2018.We will showcase all of our vendors on our Kentucky Hemp Days Facebook page.
