Sustainability on the Ground: A Closer Look at UK Grounds

The University of Kentucky is not only a top tier public university with cutting edge programs and medical facilities, but it is also now at the forefront of facilities management. The Professional Grounds Management Society (PGMS), has invited the University to be one of five stops on the 2021 Coast to Coast Campus Challenge, which showcases exemplary Grounds departments from across the nation.

Stacy Borden, UK Grounds Manager, hosts our tour in five parts, which will begin with an introduction by both Stacy Borden and UK President Dr. Eli Capiluto. Then, he will show you how the UK Grounds team takes care of campus trees, how they keep our Tree Campus Higher Education and Healthcare status, their innovative waste management systems, and some of their outreach and restoration projects.

 Learn about the spaces you occupy and the people who work to keep them beautiful!
