Greenup Climate and Ground Conditions

Greenup receives about 47 inches of precipitation a year. That volume of rain means topsoil can wash out if not protected with drainage or a cover crop.

Greenup sees roughly 118 days a year below freezing. Freeze-thaw cycles can shift the ground and cause topsoil to settle unevenly. Winter closes the ground for a stretch each year, so plan the delivery for either side of it.
