Healthy Eating Is Key To A Healthy Life

At Owensboro Health, we know that in order to improve the health of our communities, we need do our part to make eating healthy easier and more accessible to those we serve. That’s why we are partnering with the Owensboro Regional Farmers Market to make locally grown food available for you and your family.

The Market now has a permanent home on the corner of Parrish and Triplett near where the old hospital stood. Owensboro Health Regional Hospital also hosts a satellite market once a week through the summer to make these products available to our employees and guests of the hospital.

The Market features locally grown vegetables, flowers, meats and baked goods. When you visit the Market, you can be sure that everything you see is fresh, wholesome, safe to eat, and delicious for you and your family.
