Make food? Getting onto these shelves
Start with the shops closest to you, bring samples and a one-page price sheet, and know your wholesale price before you walk in.

Questions
How many cheese shops and food co-ops are in Kentucky?
This directory lists 1 cheese shops, 1 food co-ops and 2 wine shops in Kentucky, 49 independent food shops in all. National chains are left out.
Where does this list come from?
From OpenStreetMap, the open map that anyone can edit. We keep independent shops and leave out national chains. If a shop is missing or has closed, fix it on OpenStreetMap or send us a note through the form above and we will update it.
I make food. Will these shops buy from me?
Many will. Co-ops, cheese shops and country stores are where most small makers get their first wholesale accounts. Ask for the buyer, bring samples, and have a wholesale price that leaves the shop its margin.
Can I buy from small makers without going to a shop?
Yes. Madeline's is an online farmstand. Makers ship cheese, honey, preserves, coffee and more straight from their own kitchens and farms, one cart and one checkout.
