Kentucky AgrAbility

Kentucky AgrAbility is pleased to celebrate over fifteen years of service to rural Kentuckians with disabilities. Since 1993, the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service has received funding from the US Department of Agriculture to provide education and technical assistance to agriculture operators and farm families who face the challenges of a disability. Farm families may feel that an injury or disability may make it too difficult to continue farming activities. But with our help, they can! Kentucky AgrAbility assists rural and farm families in overcoming limitations.  

Kentucky AgrAbility is part of the National AgrAbility Project and exists as a partnership between the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service and Cardinal Hill Rehabilitation Hospital. Please explore our pages to learn more about what we do.
