Location
At KRFS, we steward a 4.5 acre historic homestead with a farm-to-table cafe (Old Rock Barn) and a nearby 110 acre nature reserve/farm along the Kentucky River (River Farm).
The two campuses are 20 minutes apart by van shuttle or 45 minutes by pontoon boat.
At the Old Rock Barn, we maintain a greenhouse, grow produce(organic) and flowers, operate a farm-to-table cafe, and host diverse workshops and events.
The River Farm provides greater opportunity for farming as well as river access, forestry, camping, and conservation work.
