We’re sorry!

This tool has been developed specifically for landowners in Estill and Jackson counties, Kentucky. If you are interested in exploring resources, please check out our resources pages, as many are available to Kentucky landowners outside these counties.

We’re sorry!

This tool is just for Kentucky landowners. However, you might visit our resources page to find some resources that are available outside Kentucky.

Please be patient!

We currently do not have any resources available for individuals who do not these types of land. We will add information about community gardens and other resources as we learn about them. In the meantime, feel free to explore our resources page!
