Kentucky Sustainability Institute

Hello,
I just returned from a 3 day training in Lexington put on by the Kentucky League of Cities. As part of their materials, we were provided with a CD containing information about the Kentucky Sustainability Institute. It contains all sorts of great materials including "going green" toolkits, assessment surveys, etc. I have included a link to their site. http://www.newcities.org/community/index.asp?article=1151

The toolkit and other links are included at the bottom of the website. There is a great section showing programs unique to cities all across KY.

This is a partnership with a division of KLC's New Cities Initiative.

Although this focuses primarily on the green initiative, it contains a listing of things other communities are doing to promote sustainability living. The section of "5 easy ways to go green" on page 13 of the toolkit specifically talks about local farmers.

We need to forward our info to be included.
