CAIP Education Program: Hardship Proofing Your Farm

From Nick Roy
Adair County Cooperative Extension Service

Weather, volatile markets, and health events all pose threats to the family farm. Over the past year, we have witnessed many of our neighboring counties experience severe impacts from drought, flooding, and tornadoes. Farmers also face unpredictable markets and fluctuating input costs. In addition, the success of every family farm depends on the health and well-being of those who operate it. While we may not be able to predict or prevent every challenge, we can prepare our families and farms for the risks we know exist.

Join us for a one-hour overview and discussion on developing plans to help your farm navigate disasters, unfavorable market conditions, and unexpected health events. Having a plan in place can help your family farm endure whatever challenges arise and could make a difference in keeping the farm for future generations.

The program will be offered on the following dates at the Adair County Extension Office, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY:
  • September 15, 2026, at 5pmCT
  • September 16, 2026, at 10amCT
  • September 18, 2026, at NoonCT
*Recommended for CAIP Education Requirement* Participants only need to attend one session.

They do a great job of keeping the grass trimmed short, but trying to keep clean water in a tote for them is a daily challenge! Asking $500 for the trio, will not separate.

From Pam Capozziello
What on this ride called 'Life'
You have to take the good with the bad, smile when you're sad, love what you've got and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from your mistakes, but never regret.
People change, things go wrong.
Just remember, the ride goes on.

Independent voter registration surges in July

From Nick Storm

Frankfort, KY - Secretary of State Michael Adams announced this week that in July, 8,598 new Kentucky voters registered, with Kentuckians outside the two major political parties once again showing their interest in November's election.

"In July, more Independents registered to vote in Kentucky than Republicans and Democrats combined," Adams said. "Neither party can prevail in a statewide race with only its base; both must reach out to the center."

Golf: Adair Co. teams turn in strong effort at BGCC

By Kelly Wooley
The Adair Progress

The Adair County boys' and girls' golf teams faced challenging tests in the Greenwood Gator Invitationals held at Bowling Green Country Club on Monday, August 3, 2026. Both squads finished in the middle of the pack against a strong field of competition.

The course was in outstanding condition and provided a true championship test, but despite a determined effort from both teams, the Indians and Lady Indians came up short in the final standings.

For the boys, Kaden Burton led the way with an impressive round of 74, earning a tie for 11th place individually. Graham Robertson followed with a 78, while Carson Coomer shot an 87. Hayes Burton carded an 89, and Carson Darnell finished with a 91.

The Lady Indians were paced by Ashley Loy, who fired an 83 to also finish tied for 11th place. Ila Loy added a 90, while Claire Loy and Laney Inchcliff each shot 96. Ell Brown rounded out the team scoring with a 111. Adair County also had two girls competing as individuals. Adysen Wooley posted a 120, while Braylynn Hargrove finished with a 127.

Although the final results weren't what the teams had hoped for, both the Indians and Lady Indians continued to gain valuable experience against quality competition as they prepare for the remainder of the season.

Volleyball: Lady Indians finish 3rd at Bluegrass State Games

By Kelly Wooley
The Adair Progress

The Adair County Lady Indians volleyball team wrapped up a successful weekend at the Bluegrass State Games, held in Lexington on July 31 through August 2, 2026. The Indians earned a third-place finish in the Silver Bracket of the highly competitive A Division.

Adair County was one of 38 teams to compete in the A Division, knowing the tournament would feature some of the state's top volleyball programs. Three of the Lady Indians' opponents from the weekend reached the Kentucky High School Athletic Association state tournament last season, providing Adair County with an early-season measuring stick against elite competition.

Despite facing some of the best teams in Kentucky, the Lady Indians proved they belonged. Nearly every match was closely contested, with Adair County battling point-for-point throughout the weekend. While the team worked through early-season mistakes and continued to build chemistry, the experience provided valuable lessons heading into the regular season.

See why agriculture makes KY great at the State Fair

Op-ed by Agriculture Commissioner Jonathan Shell

Frankfort, KY - As we celebrate the 122nd Kentucky State Fair this year, we also celebrate America's semiquincentennial - the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

This year's Kentucky State Fair theme, "Where County Traditions Meet Our Country's Celebration," is a nod to that celebration and the Commonwealth's united identity. Just like Kentucky, America's heritage is tied to agriculture as it represents what we eat, the clothing we wear, and the fiber we use.

Many of our country's founding fathers were farmers. The same qualities that made them successful in the fields are what also made them successful in the creation of this country. As Kentucky's agriculture commissioner, I see the hard work our farming families do today to keep our country's entrepreneurial spirit thriving. Blending grit, innovation, and respect for the land, our farmers embody what it takes to succeed in one of the world's oldest professions. Those connections to our ancestral agricultural roots can be found every year at the State Fair. It's a connection many in Kentucky don't personally have anymore, but one that can be re-established each August.

Families should review insurance coverage before college

From Kristin Voskuhl

Frankfort, KY - As students prepare to move into residence halls and off-campus housing this fall, Team Kentucky is encouraging families to review their insurance policies to help avoid unexpected costs during the school year.

"College is an investment in your student's future. As families get ready to send their kids to a college near or far, it's also a good time to have a conversation about insurance," said Gov. Beshear. "The right insurance policies match your family's needs and protect you from unexpected expenses."

From health insurance and renters insurance to auto coverage, a few conversations before move-in day can help students understand their coverage and make informed decisions if they need medical care or experience a property loss.

Old Fort Harrod State Park festival August 13-15

A stop at Old Fort Harrod State Park in Harrodsburg, KY leaves a vivid impression. The 15 acres feature a reconstruction of Fort Harrod, the first permanent American settlement in the state of Kentucky.

The fort's construction tells its own story of frontier ingenuity. Sharpened points topped the log fencing that encircled the compound, designed to slow down -- if not stop entirely -- anyone attempting to climb over.

Sleep better by moving the body, staying social

If you are sleeping less than you used to, you are not alone and you are not necessarily doing anything wrong. According to the National Institute on Aging, sleep changes with age in predictable, biological ways. The deep sleep phases that restore the body become shorter.

These are normal changes, not signs of disease. The challenge is that the body still needs roughly the same amount of sleep it always did, around seven to eight hours, according to the National Sleep Foundation. The need doesn't shrink, but the ability to get there does.
