The new home of Kentucky baseball was officially named Kentucky Proud Park after approval by the University of Kentucky Board of Trustees. The name is a tribute to farmers and businesses of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the Big Blue Nation.

"Farmers and their families are deeply woven into the culture and heritage of our state," Athletics Director Mitch Barnhart said. "As the Commonwealth's flagship university, we are thrilled to honor that through the name of our new baseball stadium and pleased to have a partner in Kentucky Farm Bureau that feels the same way. We look forward to many, many wins in Kentucky Proud Park."

Kentucky Farm Bureau secured the rights to name the stadium from JMI Sports, UK Athletics' multimedia rights partner. In turn, Kentucky Farm Bureau elected to name the stadium for Kentucky Proud, the state's official agricultural marketing program housed at the Kentucky Department of Agriculture. No state taxpayer dollars were used in funding the agreement.

"The Kentucky Department of Agriculture appreciates the opportunity to stamp the Kentucky Proud brand as a fixture in this magnificent new facility," Agriculture Commissioner Ryan Quarles said. "On behalf of our more than 7,000 Kentucky Proud members, I would like to express my gratitude to Kentucky Farm Bureau for sponsoring the Kentucky Proud Park name. This will enable us to raise awareness across Big Blue Nation that Kentucky Proud is the brand for fresh, local products for every Kentucky family."

The UK Board of Trustees approved the naming at its regularly scheduled board meeting.

"Agriculture is the backbone of Kentucky's economy. And it is part of the very foundation of what this university has been part of for more than 150 years. We were, in fact, created to help sustain and strengthen Kentucky's farm economy," said UK President Eli Capilouto. "This partnership among UK Athletics, the Department of Agriculture and the Kentucky Farm Bureau is a powerful symbol to those ties and our shared commitment to the Commonwealth."

The Kentucky Proud program is funded through the generosity of the Kentucky Agricultural Development Fund. The fund is directed by the Kentucky Agricultural Development Board and administered by the Governor's Office of Agricultural Policy.

"Kentucky Farm Bureau is proud to be a long-time supporter of University of Kentucky Athletics, but today we found a truly unique way to draw our worlds a little closer together," said Mark Haney, president of Kentucky Farm Bureau. "Naming the university's brand-new baseball stadium Kentucky Proud Park allows us to highlight our own deep agricultural roots while also sharing the spotlight with so many of our members who grow and raise the products marketed under the Kentucky Proud banner. This partnership is a home run for Kentucky agriculture and a great way to further our support of UK Athletics."
