MISSION
 With an office in each Wisconsin county, Cooperative Extension
develops practical educational programs tailored to local needs
and based on university knowledge and research.
County-based Extension educators are University of Wisconsin
faculty and staff who are experts in agriculture and agribusiness,
community and economic development, natural resources, family
living and youth development.
Extension county-based faculty and staff live and work with
the people they serve in communities across the state. Extension
specialists work on UW System campuses where they access current
research and knowledge. Collaboration between county and campus
faculty is the hallmark of Cooperative Extension in Wisconsin. |
