The Commonwealth of Kentucky is known as the "Bluegrass State", because of the native bluegrass is present in many of the pastures throughout the state. The bluegrass makes possible the breeding of quality livestock, especially thoroughbred racing horses. Kentucky is a state with diverse environments and abundant resources, including Mammoth Cave National Park - the world's longest cave system and the greatest length of navigable waterways and streams in the continental US.
