The Bourbon County Conservation District will host its 65th annual dinner meeting on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. at the Church of the Annunciation, Parish Hall, 1010 High Street in Paris. This event will celebrate the farming community and honor individuals who have contributed to the goals of promoting conservation in Bourbon County by their works and their achievements.
The guest speaker will be Dr. Kenny Burdine. Kenny grew up in Nicholasville, KY where his family produced tobacco and raised cattle and sheep. He received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Kentucky in 1999, 2003, and 2011, and serves as an Extension Professor of Livestock Economics in the UK Department of Agricultural Economics. Kenny focuses his extension programming in the areas of livestock marketing, price risk management, and general profitability. He also partners with two colleagues to publish Cattle Market Notes Weekly and teaches an undergraduate Livestock Economics class on campus each fall.
They look forward to having an informative meeting with good food and fellowship among conservation-minded folks. Please make your reservations to ensure a seat and meal by April 16th at 859-377-5002 or email bourboncountyconservation@gmail.com.
