About Our Facilities

UK's Maine Chance Equine Campus sits on what researchers in the College of Agriculture collectively call "North Farm." The education and research cluster sits on the former site of the Maine Chance Farm while the Health Research Cluster is located primarily on the former Spindletop Farm. The land mass of the North Farm is approximately 2,400 acres which provides a vast array of teaching, research and extension opportunities for the faculty, staff and students of the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture.
