Cheese, wine, and good luck
We all praise carefully crafted marketing decisions, but sometimes it just all falls into your lap.
Here are two stories of good luck that recently came to two Kentucky agritourism operators,
presented with our hopes that your business will be the next to benefit.

We all agree that the worst fate that can befall a
business is failure. The second most dire might be
over-abundant success.
Ed Puterbaugh of Lexington, who lays claim to the
status of Kentucky’s senior craft cheese maker, operates
Boone Creek Creamery with five employees. Every
day he starts the 90-day production cycle for only 42
pounds of cheese. He could sell much more, but how to
fulfill the contracts?
“Costco wanted every ounce we could make – I
A small winery in the middle of Kentucky produces
the official wine of a Hollywood film festival 26 miles
off the Los Angeles coast because of a chance meeting
on a plane between the vineyard’s publicist and the
festival chairman.
For the fourth straight year, Horseshoe Bend
Vineyard and Winery, Willisburg, provided the official
wines of the recently concluded Catalina Film Festival
(www.catalinafilm.org) on Santa Catalina Island in late
September, said Horseshoe Bend’s Greg Karsner.
The festival leader “loves our attitude, our moxie.
We made a couple of special labels for them,” Greg said.
This year’s festival ran four days ending Sept.
(see CHEESE, page 2)
(see WINE, page 4)
The six blocks of cheese in the press behind Ed will take one
day to produce and 90 days to properly age. With a total daily
output of only 42 pounds of his highly-sought-after specialty
cheeses, he faces several market-prediction challenges as well
as time-management constraints in pursuit of business success
and development.

Trader Joe’s and Earth Fair.
One of his most daunting obligations is fulfilling
the needs of the University of Kentucky, which is under
mandate to use a certain percentage of local foods on
campus.
Solitary vs. public duties
Ed has to develop customers, do marketing
research, and conduct public relations events such as
school tours while adding his personal touch to the

day’s production. Ed believes
each wheel of cheese reflects
the personal care and attention
of the cheese maker, so he won’t
stint on that process.
The company relocated to
larger quarters a month ago to
handle the foreseen expansion,
but that brings commitments
of its own. The new facility will
house a sampling room and
a demonstration area where
visitors can watch from the
other side of an observation
window as cheese is made.
To make visiting the plant
more appealing than just
taking a tour of a stainless-steel
factory, the planned restaurant
will be decorated as a Tuscan
patio. Children visiting will
surely note, remember, and talk
about the Hobbit’s Cave that is being decked out
especially for them.
“It’s indirect marketing,” Ed said. “They’ll go
back home and talk it up.”
Assistance from KDA
Ed has been making cheese for several years
now. Cheese making for Ed was a nearly perfect
convergence of two prior careers, as a microbiologist
and a 1990s graphic artist pioneering the
application of computer graphics to commercial
printing.
Ed remembers petitioning the Kentucky
Department of Agriculture for permission to
operate as an artisan cheese maker. At first, KDA
didn’t know how to deal with a small operation,
Ed said, but the necessary licenses eventually came
about, and his newest career was under way.
Ed’s cheeses take 90 days to age, so he has
to predict his market three months in advance.
“We’ll always make gruyere – you can never have
enough gruyere,” he says. His very popular Sassy
Redhead, infused with a rare degree of spicy flavors,
is another hot seller. Ed must read his markets and
make educated guesses about who will buy what.
National notice
The stakes riding on those guesses
has been accelerated recently by a
stroke of purest luck: The New York
advertising agency for Windstream
Communications selected his business
as one of eight handcrafting artisans to
be featured in high-quality, wide-release
Internet videos.
Windstream, based in Little Rock,
Arkansas, provides broadband Internet
and telephone landlines in smaller cities
and rural areas, including Lexington.
The video series, backed up by
a Tumblr page, “Locally Crafted,”
highlights low-tech hands-on creative
pursuits in the areas Windstream serves.
No backstage angling positioned
Boone Creek Creamery for
Windstream’s favor – the agency found Ed’s company
through Internet searching. “It was just a stroke of
luck,” Ed said.
Another lucky break followed: The New York Times
featured the marketing approach of the Windstream
video series as Ed’s was released in early September.
Ed’s video is fourth in a planned series of eight.
How to get things done
All that good fortune serves to turns up the
pressure on Ed’s time management. Ed advises
agritourism operators facing similar challenges to
gather and organize data. “We are hyper-organized,”
Ed said. “I spreadsheet absolutely everything.”
The company must always track how much of
which product is in what stage of production, aging,
and stockpiling. Knowing which cheeses sell best in
which areas leads to more efficient marketing. “Hyde
Park farmers’ market in Cincinnati buys more of certain
cheeses than other places,” Ed says as a for-instance.
Solving the challenge of increasing production
must precede finding new customers. “If you accept a
contract from a restaurant or store, you had better be
able to fulfill it, or they’ll close a door you’ll never open
again,” Ed cautioned.
Ed says the key
to management
efficiency
is putting
“absolutely
everything”
into accessible
database formats
via spreadsheets.
These posted
lists are for
Ed and his
employees
to track what
products are in
stock, the details
of its production,
and when it is
ready to go out.
Developing new customers
Marketing overlaps with customer development
as Ed and his employees work area farmers’ markets.
Selling at Hyde Park and Findlay Market in Cincinnati
not only drew new customers but also helped his
cheeses catch the attention of area restaurants and of
Kroger and Jungle Jim supermarkets.
Cheese baskets sold online for the upcoming
holiday season will also add to the press of business, as
well as the classroom cheese making sessions for which
Boone Creek sells gift certificates on its website.
Ed also develops customers with in-house tours.
He has a special affinity for school tour groups because
cheesemaking fits so many curricula so well. “A French
teacher from Sayre School [in Lexington] prepared
her class for the trip by talking about French cheeses
and the concept of ‘terroir,’ which means the natural
balance of flora and fauna in the area where cheese
is made, a balance that affects its character.” Cheeses
can similarly serve as a tactile, practical illustration of
concepts in geography, biology, and physics.
Finally, the solution to the problem of how to get
things done is to find enough energy and motivation to
do them. Ed seems equal to that demand: Though he
says he hasn’t had a day off in three months, he sounds
more proud than wearied when he says it.

WINE ... from page 1
28. One red and one white from Horseshoe Bend was
presented to each award winner in 10 categories.
Also, “the only wine poured [was] our labels,” Greg
said. Greg shipped 40 cases to Catalina to supply all the
festival’s galas, parties, and celebrity cruises.
The European influence
Horseshoe Bend makes European-influenced
dry wines. Founders Ann and Bob Karsner, Greg’s
parents, lived in the Netherlands for 25 years, absorbing
European winemaking style.
Their grapes are fed by an underground spring.
Horseshoe Bend took its name from a creek that forms
a horseshoe border around the hilltop vineyards and
winery, and also to salute the equine connection to
Kentucky, Greg said.
Centrally located between the state’s two largest
cities - 40 minutes from Lexington and 50 minutes
from Louisville - Greg still finds a challenge in “trying
to get people out here,” he said.
The winery occupies more than 120 acres on
narrow Lawson Lane, a one-lane road that transitions
from pavement to gravel. “It can be a little bit daunting,
especially at night,” Greg said.
Ann makes most of the wine and keeps the
books, Bob tends the grapes and also has a hand in
the winemaking, and Greg is a jack of all trades. “I do
everything,” he said.
Graphic designs
Greg’s most noticeable contribution to the family
business is designing unique labels. The most striking,
“Kong’s Thong,“ features the famous big ape wearing
an unlikely pink brief and holding the Horseshoe Bend
logo, a court jester figure.
Horseshoe Bend wines are available in more than
60 restaurants and retail stores throughout Kentucky
and Ohio, and at Chicago’s Hearty Boys restaurant.

Can you identify which branch of service is represented by each of the five insignia? (Answer inverted below)
Devine’s seventh corn maze honors U.S. Armed Forces
The Devine’s Corn Maze & Pumpkin Patch in
Harrodsburg honors the United States Armed Forces
by including the five military-branch emblems in this
year’s maze design.
This will be the seventh year the Devines have
opened their family farm in Mercer County for
fall activities to guests from all across the state. The
highlight of the visit for many is a trip through the 10acre corn maze.
Maze designer Jason Devine said, “We have all had
parents, grandparents, siblings, and friends who fought
for the freedoms we enjoy. This year’s design honors all
veterans and active-duty members of our Armed Forces
with the emblems of our five branches of military:
Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard.”
Previous maze designs have honored Kentucky and
all of its counties, the World Equestrian Games logo, the
Final Four® logo from 2011, the National Championship
logo in 2012, and FFA and 4-H in 2013.
Devine’s Corn Maze & Pumpkin Patch fall family
fun includes hayrides to the pumpkin patch, bonfires,
a petting area, hay maze, giant slide, cow train, tube
swings, trike track, corn hopper, and zip lines.
Admission includes a pumpkin for everyone and
all activities except zip lines. Devine’s activities run
through Nov. 1, when it will become the “Field of
Horror” for Halloween.
- Devine’s press release
Green River Lake maze notes 90th anniversary of Ky. state parks
Green River Lake State Park and its supporting volunteers
are honoring the 90th anniversary of the Kentucky State Parks
system in its corn maze, open through October.
The maze, located near the park entrance, is inspired by the
Kentucky State Parks logo.
Most of the work on the maze was donated, and the project
is sponsored by the park and the Friends of Green River Lake.
There is no charge for admission, but the Friends group will
accept donations from visitors.
Green River Lake State Park south of Campbellsville has a
campground, boating and fishing on an 8,200-acre lake, and 25
miles of hiking and horseback trails. Call (270) 465-8255 for
information.

Floyd County Farmers’ Market
ranked strong nationally
in “most loved” voting
The Floyd County Farmers’ Market
was voted Kentucky’s “most celebrated”
farmers’ market, as it was last year, but
this year by a much wider margin, in the
“I Love My Farmers’ Market” promotion
staged by American Farmland Trust. This
year the market again led Kentucky in the
voting, and made a huge upward move in
the national rankings, from 23rd last year
to fourth this year.
The market has shown considerable growth during its five-year
existence, adding farmers, cooks and craft artists and bringing in over
$48,000 during 20 sale dates last year.
The market was highlighted this summer by the Appalachian
Regional Commission in “Bon Appétit Appalachia,” a showcase
that can be viewed online at www.visitappalachia.com and in the
Summer 2014 issue of Food Traveler Magazine.
Forty-seven food destinations in Kentucky were so honored by the
ARC guide, part of an overall initiative to promote Appalachia’s local
food economy.

the Olive Hill Center
for Arts & Education,
Apples, and a slice of education: Hinton’s Orchard and Farm Market
By Whitney Crume
One of the best parts of Kentucky Proud is not
just the fresh produce, but the local people. Jeremy
and Joanna Hinton and their three children embody
a valued tradition of passing agriculture careers down
through the generations.
Jeremy, a native of LaRue County, is the eighth
generation to farm in the area. Joanna grew up in
neighboring Marion County.
Hinton’s Orchard and Farm Market in 2002
was Tommy Bennett Orchard, part of a farm operated
by Jeremy’s relatives. In 2006, the current farm was
purchased and
renamed as it is
today.
Over the next
few years, Jeremy
and Joanna added
over 1,200 apple,
peach and pear
trees to replace aging fruit trees. In addition, they
planted raspberries, blackberries, and asparagus.
Today, Hinton’s presents farm-fresh fruits and
vegetables, baked goods, and you-pick experiences,
with an accent on agriculture education. The Hintons,
University of Kentucky graduates, are passionate about
educating on agriculture through school tours and
hosting events.
Groups spend a day picking strawberries, eating
lunch under the pavilion, exploring the tire jungle, and
playing on the old stationary tractor.
One of the unique characteristics of the orchard
is the “Mini Market” housed in one of the two old
grain bins which have been converted into play places.
HINTON’S ORCHARD & FARM MARKET

Children load up little shopping carts with imitation
fruits and vegetables, and play store.
Shifting palate of flavors
Fall brings the Apple Fest and Pumpkin Fest, with
visitors gathering fresh apples and pumpkins for all
their fall festivities.
Hinton’s is a Kentucky Proud producer and Kentucky
Farm Bureau Certified Roadside Farm Market. The open
market features rows of fruit and vegetable baskets,
shelves of fresh baked breads, and ice cream.
The ice cream flavors pace the changing seasons,
with late-spring and early-summer strawberry flavors
giving way to peach and caramel apple in the fall.
One of the most interesting and delicious flavors is
pumpkin-pie ice cream, a sure herald of autumn.
In 2008, the Hintons’ efforts were recognized
when they received runner-up honors as KFB’s
Outstanding Young Kentucky Farm Family.

My visit to Roberts Family Farm
By Carole Logsdon
Executive Director, Meade County Chamber of Commerce
I remember trying to drive up to it the first several
times and getting lost, knowing I was right on it but
not there. Kevin and Rhonda Roberts welcome you to
Roberts Family Farm, hidden away in the cedar groves
and the farmlands of south-central Meade County, in
the Guston community near Brandenburg.
Summer welcomes area visitors to six acres of plump,
juicy blackberries, hanging heavy on well-tended vines.
Forget all you know about thorns and standing in
bushes at old fence rows beside the road. These are
ready for you to approach leisurely and fill your basket.
Sparking memories

She patiently answers the barrage of questions, familiar
to her from years of greeting visitors.
This is where I remembered the days as a young
girl when I went with my dad and picked berries for
fresh pies or jams made in Mom’s kitchen. I can still
hear the quiet murmurings of voices in other locations
and the sound of berries falling into nearby buckets.
The Roberts family will ship every berry not picked
by locals to a nearby winery. Some will end up on the
judges’ tasting spoons, competing to be named among
the best jams and jellies at state and county fairs.
Gearing up for fall
While blackberries are being harvested, preparations
for the fall season were underway at full speed. While
I picked blackberries for cobblers, Kevin and Rhonda
were clearing pathways, trimming mums for bloom,
and growing gourds, corn, and pumpkins. The Roberts
family also grows seven varieties of fall melons and
gourds for decoration.
They will can 2,000 jars of blackberry jam but will
run out by mid-fall. The school visits are scheduled
weeks in advance, and the farm comes alive with
activity. School buses arrive and sack lunches are placed
cheesecakes and other delights, Rhonda reports.
Momma Rob has opened a bakery!
Rhonda and Kevin have another challenge
these days: This fall season brought the Sept.
15 opening of Momma Rob’s Bakery in a
separate building on the farm grounds. The farm
visitors are giving rave reviews to the homemade
on the picnic tables under the pavilion behind the
country store.
The stage is set. In preparation for the fall tourism
season, the hands have been brought in; all family
members familiar with their yearly jobs are ready.
Operations began Sept. 15 and will continue through
Nov. 1, daily until dark.
The canning is mostly done and pumpkins are
being purchased. I say “mostly done” because Rhonda
will can every last berry to ship, and for sale in the
country store.
They have an acre of corn that is the canvas for
an elaborate corn maze. Andy Mills graphs out the
The farm has grown significantly over the last
three years, she said, including a significant spike
in growth last season, which convinced Rhonda
and Kevin they had to offer more.
“We decided we had to offer either a bakery or
a wedding venue, and the wedding venue would
have cost triple,” she said. Plus, Rhonda has
always enjoyed baking. So they took the plunge,

the pumpkin patch to let visitors pick their pumpkins.
Artistic, beautiful colors
As I walk through the pumpkin patch, I think
the owls and mice at night took paint brushes to
their sides, so artistic and beautiful are the colors and
shapes. Deep oranges, reds, and purples streak their
curves and bumps.

under old shade trees waiting to be selected for the
fall pie. Mums abound, and corn shocks stand tall for
decorating needs. Visitors
