NC State Extension

NC State Extension is a statewide program that connects North Carolina residents with research-based knowledge from North Carolina State University. Its goal is to improve community well-being by providing practical advice on topics like agriculture, gardening, health, food safety, and youth development. Extension agents work directly with individuals, families, farmers, and local organizations to offer education, resources, and support tailored to regional needs. Think of it as a bridge between university expertise and everyday life, helping people make informed decisions to enhance their quality of life and strengthen their communities.
