University of Minnesota Extension Service
The University of Minnesota Extension Service is the major educational outreach arm of the University of Minnesota, connecting University research with Minnesota communities. Campus-based extension specialists and researchers work with county-based extension educators to deliver educational programs through print, in-person, and electronic means. Programs range from water quality to sustainable agriculture, from urban horticulture to youth development, from natural resource management to tourism development. Environment and natural resource educators and specialists develop and implement a broad range of programs with information on shore land issues, agricultural systems, residential systems, forestry/wood products. These programs provide information on all aspects of environment and natural resource management, from water quality, forestry and wood products, solid waste and waste water management, to indoor environmental issues such as air quality, radon, housing materials, and systems.
