What We Do

Agriculture and Natural Resource Extension (ANR) Educators serve as research based, unbiased information source for county and state constituents on a variety of topics including: crops, ag business, livestock, natural resource, horticulture, small farms, urban ag, pesticide use, and land conservation. In partnership with Purdue University subject matter experts, ANR Extension Educators can provide relevant and proven best management practices to address many client's situational needs.

This is a great way for our county community members to get a better look at the networking that Purdue Extension does around the state to help provide researched backed resources to our communities. Also, if you are an Purdue Extension Master Gardener this is an easy way to get 1 education hour a month.
