Stewardship in Bloom: Gardens, Bourbon & Impact
The afternoon will include a private historical and garden tour of the arboretum-level grounds surrounding Stony Point mansion, the personal estate of Colonel Albert Blanton, visionary distillery owner whose home overlooks Buffalo Trace Distillery. Guests will also enjoy a special tasting experience inside Experimental Warehouse X, where aging techniques are developed and tested, along with light hors d’oeuvres and a hosted bar. This exclusive gathering has been specially created for our guests and is not available to the public or offered in any other capacity. Please note this area is not handicapped accessible. There are natural stone stairs and gravel paths, and may be a hindrance for those with mobility issues.

Catholic Charities walks beside families and communities in crisis, providing household financial support, disaster recovery, behavioral health services, and more. Last year, Catholic Charities impacted nearly 1,000 households throughout the 50 counties we serve in Central and Eastern Kentucky. Please be a part of our mission and help a family in crisis today in Kentucky. To learn more details about the outreach services that you are supporting, visit us at www.catholiccharitieslexington.org.
This afternoon is our way of thanking you for the vision, leadership, and generosity that sustain the work of Catholic Charities. Without faithful leaders committed to this mission, we cannot continue bringing hope, healing, and light into the darkest corners of our Kentucky communities. Your $400 per-person participation directly supports families throughout our 50-county diocese and makes this special gathering possible. Tax-deductible records will be provided.
A thank you note from a recent family.
