It has been a part of Michigan communities for more than 100 years, having started in 1907, when MSU hired its first field agent to share farm knowledge with local growers. “ Whether it’s through a local class, a phone call, or a trusted online guide, MSU Extension works alongside people in every Michigan county to help them live and work better”.

The program is for all ages with no registration required.
