Appalachia – Science in the Public Interest (ASPI) has been working for healthy land and sustainable communities in Kentucky and Central Appalachia for 35 years. ASPI is a non-profit resource center advocating for sustainable development, responsible resource management, and informed personal choices. We use applicable science and technology to benefit all ecosystems by promoting innovative ideas and appropriate technologies. We accomplish this through education, research, consulting and demonstration projects.
Our focus areas are: Energy, Food Systems, Culture, and Ecosystems. We operate out of our Small Town Demonstration Center at our main offices in Mount Vernon, KY. Our other educational facilities are located on close to 200 acres of old growth forest at our Rockcastle River Wilderness Site in Livingston, KY, which includes the Mary E Fritsch Nature Center, Michael Francis Zalla Trails. Since our inception in 1977 in ASPI has been dedicated to education and awareness of our region’s environmental issues and we remain just as dedicated to that ongoing cause 35 years later.
