Know the Stakes: Why Floyds Fork Needs You
Floyds Fork is one of Louisville’s last unspoiled natural treasures, but its future hangs in the balance. Unchecked development, watershed threats, and environmental negligence are putting this irreplaceable ecosystem at risk. Knowledge is power—and the more we understand, the more we can protect what matters.

The Development Dilemma
A growing city shouldn’t mean a shrinking wild. Development projects across Louisville threaten to pave over nature’s last strongholds, replacing forests and waterways with concrete and congestion. Our Development Map tracks the areas at risk—because when we know where the danger lies, we can fight for smarter solutions.
Watershed Under Siege
Floyds Fork isn’t just a stream—it’s an entire watershed, feeding wildlife, filtering pollution, and preventing floods. But erosion, pollution, siltation, tree canopy loss, and reckless development are chipping away at its ability to sustain life. Left unchecked, these issues could turn a thriving ecosystem into a dead zone.
