Due to much of the flooding in Central/Eastern KY during the spring of 2021, the Woodford County Extension Service coordinated a flood relief drive to provide necessary items for victims. In collaboration with Woodford County Emergency Management and Millville Community Center to distribute the items locally, the Woodford County Extension Service raised several hundred pounds of cleaning supplies for over 50 affected homes in Woodford County and Eastern KY. In addition, 350 small square bales and 54 round bales of hay were delivered to affected victims through the Wolfe County Extension Service and UK Robinson Center for Appalachian Resource Sustainability in partnership with Woodford County producers and the Kentucky Horse Council.
