Success StoryResonate Foods LLC in Lyon County Provides Unvaluable Help to the Entomology Program after Tornado Disaster



Resonate Foods LLC in Lyon County Provides Unvaluable Help to the Entomology Program after Tornado Disaster

Author: Raul Villanueva

Planning Unit: Entomology

Major Program: Tornado Response and Recovery

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

The entomology program at the UK-REC at Princeton has been working with Anthony Schiavino VP of Production at Resonate Foods since 2019. On December 13, 2022, three days after the tornado Mr. Schiavino and Villanueva met inadvertently at the entrance of the REC. There, Schiavino offered his support to the Entomology program and other UK-REC programs by providing a high tunnel that initially was used to store salvaged items rescuedfrom the tornado. Later on, in mid spring we began to grow hemp. Mr. Schiavino extended his support to other programs. Dr. Bradley’s Plant pathology Program is also making use of this facility. Free of charge. Resonate Foods is allowing UK to use water and electricity free of charge. This company is helping the revamp of the entomology program in Western KY.
