Careers at Farmington

At Farmington, we are dedicated to preserving and conserving the historic structures, collections, and landscape of this historic hemp plantation located in Louisville, KY.  Farmington was once home to one of Kentucky’s oldest and most prestigious families, the Speeds, as well as up to sixty enslaved individuals who provided the physical labor required to maintain the plantation.  It is also a site visited by Joshua Speed’s closest friend, Abraham Lincoln, that left an impression on the future President and his views on slavery.  As a National Historic Landmark our work provides stories of the diverse people who contributed to local, regional, and national history, thereby cultivating an understanding of our shared past and present.
