Welcome to 2025 with the CCD!

If you haven’t noticed already, things look a little different around here. Our team worked diligently throughout 2024 to build and launch a new website for the CCD, and we’re really excited about it. If you’re new here or you’d like a quick breakdown of all we have to offer, check out the Quick Start Guide we put together. While we have most things in place and ready to roll, we know there are probably a few things we’ve missed so feel free to Contact us to let us know if something’s broken or you need help finding something.

We are also celebrating our 25th anniversary as a center in 2025. We’ll be sharing features on social media, hosting some events and other special opportunities, and otherwise reflecting on the last 25 years and what our next quarter-century will bring.

We’re excited for what 2025 has in store—we’re launching the third iteration of our Marketing for All curriculum with some more intensive workshop opportunities for direct farm marketers. We’re in the planning stages for hosting a Mechanical Weed Control field day with our friends at the Organic Association of Kentucky, we’re going to publish a high tunnel guide for producers developed by a team at UK, Grow Appalachia, and Kentucky Horticulture Council, and we’ll continue updating and hosting all the great resources you’ve come to expect including Price Reports, Publications, Video content, and more.
