We advocate for growing our city while simultaneously promoting our unique farmland. | Darby Dan Farm
We work to positively impact countywide planning, development, zoning laws, and policies – which are the building blocks of a better quality of life, economy, and environment for us all.
Our team regularly advocates at city hall for responsible zoning and development in Lexington.
Our bustling urban core and our farmlands are the economic engines that make Lexington unique.
