ABOUT US

Louisville Keep Your Fork is a non-profit that advocates for Floyds Fork, Louisville’s premier wildlife corridor. Our vision is to preserve and protect the beauty, wildlife, and recreation this waterway provides. We seek to influence, inspire, and inform civic leaders, business owners, environmental advocates, and residents. We believe that Floyds Fork is a natural treasure that must be protected. Floyds Fork is the last natural living waterway within Jefferson County and is the habitat for over 40 species of fish, 100s of birds and an astounding number of reptiles, amphibians, mollusks, and mammals. These animals depend on clean water and the natural tree canopy for their very existence. This waterway’s beauty, wildlife, and adventure rivals any state park and worthy of preserving, protecting, and showcasing. 

Louisville Keep Your Fork is NOT opposed to development. The development community plays a critical role within the larger community, taking enormous risks & creating employment opportunities for many people. However, Floyds Fork is a special area which is vulnerable & in need of protection. Louisville Keep Your Fork is focused on highlighting irresponsible developments impacting Louisville's 31 miles of the Floyds Fork ZOD waterway.  It is possible to respectfully develop along Floyds Fork, preserving this beautiful area.
