Future Home of Kentucky Agriculture Heritage Center
 The Kentucky Agriculture Heritage Center is designed to be much more than just an exhibit to house the state’s rich agriculture history. The Center’s state-of-the-art sustainable building will incorporate facilities to showcase Kentucky agriculture’s past and present with a focus on building a strong future. The 180,000- square-foot facility will house agriculture artifacts and museum objects that tell the story of agriculture’s contributions to the state. The energy independent facility will feature interactive exhibits, a restaurant, a television studio, convention facilities, full-service indoor and outdoor kitchens and a retail outlet for Kentucky products.
