The Kentucky Horse Park Mustang Troop matches wild horses from out West with teenagers from Lexington neighborhoods dominated by public housing projects. The young troopers learn the responsibility of caring for their horses and the teamwork of parade work. In January 1997, their hard work paid off when they got to travel to Washington, DC to march in President Clinton's second inaugural parade. If it's Saturday, people in Henderson know that Sonny Burton's barbecue pits will be smoking chicken for a good cause. In this segment, Kentucky Life visits several of these operations in rural Central Kentucky, as well as Lexington's popular in-town Farmer's Market.
Main products are apples, cider, sweet corn, pumpkins, and peaches.
Periodic festivals are held during the growing season. From U.S. 60 in Woodford County, take KY 1967 south 3.5 miles. Store is on the left. Located five miles outside Georgetown on U.S. 25.
