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.
