Promoting our unique and productive Bluegrass farmland is a key part of Fayette Alliance’s mission. Our unique rural areas contribute to our identity, economic development, and quality of life. Fayette Alliance advocates for sustainable, responsible, and innovative growth because we know that maintaining a balance between our irreplaceable Bluegrass farmland and a growing, vibrant city is what makes Lexington-Fayette County extraordinary.

This session will educate our attendees on the significant ways our farmland impacts our community and why smart, equitable growth and farmland preservation are two sides of the same coin. Our rural land acts as the factory floor of our community, providing a wide range of diverse employment opportunities, a $2B annual county economic impact and supporting a growing local food movement, connecting more people to the land every day.
