John Lhotka is a forestry professor at the University of Kentucky. He came to the 25th annual Reforest the Bluegrass with his 14-year-old daughter, Anna. He said the ground was soft from the previous days’ rains, which made planting the seedlings easier. Their goal: to plant an entire bucket-full – perhaps 50.
“It absolutely is a passion. Just my profession and it helps the environment and just I like the understanding about forests and reforestation and what it can do for us in the planet.”
