This past Friday night, six states in the mid-west, Kentucky in particular, were hit by 4 tornadoes that devastated communities throughout the state. The death toll is nearing 100, with over 100 people still missing. Families lost everything. Farmers lost everything. Over 25,000 people are still without power, and relief efforts are just getting underway.

If you want to send some love in the way of money to show your support, the New York Times has put together a list of places where you can donate.

I would like to add one more relief fund to that list, the Kentucky Farm Bureau and the University of Kentucky Extension Office have established The Kentucky Agriculture Relief Fund.

The Kentucky Agriculture Relief Fund is a cash donation portal managed by the Kentucky Farm Bureau Education Foundation. Funds collected will be administered through a grant process. The donations will be used to support farmers and agribusinesses in the affected areas. ( I wish we could specify “organic farmers” and not donate towards agribusiness!)

Donations can be made to the Kentucky Agriculture Relief Fund at gofundme.com/KyAgReliefFund.
