Hi, I'm Kayla with Louisville Water.

Welcome to Above the Dirt Garden Shop.

We're here today to see how this amazing local business is using Louisville Pure Tap in their daily operations.

We're honored to be at the heart of their local business.

Let's head inside to learn more.

So I've been dreaming of being a crazy plant lady for years.

And on the same day, my husband and I both drove by this empty gas station and thought, this could be it.

This could be the plant store.

And that night he came up with the name Above the Dirt, and we've been here ever since.

So

I'm what I call an enthusiastic hobbyist when it comes to plants.

This is intended to be a very safe place for everyone to learn together.

Maybe we'll even Google it alongside you.

So caring for plants comes to a few things.

One, the best light possible, great water, and humidity.

So making sure each plant, whether it's inside the store or outside in the lot, is getting the light, the water, and the humidity it desires to thrive.

We use Louisville Pure Tap literally all day, every day.

Whether it be our native plants, our house plants, the veggie garden that we grow here, we are watering one, two, maybe even three times daily, and we use Pure Tap to do it.

The quality of water that we have here in Louisville is actually a rather big deal because you know we're buddies with other plant stores around the country, and not everybody is able to simply use their tap water.

They have to do these crazy reverse osmosis things to just water their plants.

We're here, I can just pick up a hose or a watering can.

It's actually quite nice.

We're proud to give Above the Dirt Garden Shop the Made with Pure Tap seal of approval.

Thank you for your commitment to quality and for using Louisville Pure Tap.

Cheers.

A temporary power pole, often called a temp pole, is a standalone electrical pole that provides electricity to a location for a short period of time.

These are commonly used at construction sites, outdoor events, or after natural disasters when permanent power is not available.

To install a temporary pole, a permit must be pulled by a licensed electrical contractor to ensure that the setup is safe and complies with electrical code requirements.

If you have any questions about how to get a temp pole permit, please contact our office.

Hi, I'm Kayla with Louisville Water, and this is Made with Pure Tap, a special segment where we're highlighting some amazing local businesses that use water to make their products.

Here in Louisville, we're proud of our drinking water.

It's so good, we even gave it a name, Louisville Pure Tap.

Today we're at Rabbit Hole Distillery.

Let's go see how they're using Louisville Pure Tap to make their one of a kind spirits.

Hi, my name is Calvin's, I'm on Yun, and I'm the founder of Rabbit Hole.

I started uh rabbit hole because I've always had a real soft spot for fine wine and spirits.

I cut my teeth in the hospitality business.

Louisville, of course, is the gateway to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.

It's my hometown now, and uh it's important to start a company here in Louisville in part because of the ingredients.

In addition to the grains, Louisville Pure Tap is uh a critical part of uh what goes into our products.

One of the most important things when it comes to water is to make sure that you don't have iron and sulfur, essentially ingredients that are not good for bourbon production.

And one of the most important things about Louisville water and Louisville tap is that it's essentially good water, perfect for distilling.

One of the things that makes rabbit hole unique is the fact that the distillery is set up like a culinary kitchen.

We make what I describe as extreme small batch, meaning that every batch is generally about 20 to 23 barrels.

But collectively, when you put the whole facility together, we're able to produce 27,000 barrels a year.

Cave, we're proud to give Rabbit Hole Distillery the Made with Pure Tap seal of approval.
