Plan of Work: Promoting Sustainable Agriculture, Natural Resources, and Urban Forestry
Outcome: Initial Outcome
The Jefferson County Extension office received a generous donation from Jefferson County Farm Bureau, to purchase all materials needed for raised bed gardens. The partnership with Farm Bureau also supports programs within the Extension office working together. UK Extension and KSU Extension agents, along with assistants and 4-H Teen Club members, came together to build 7 raised garden beds. Once the beds are filled with soil, the 4-H and Horticulture Departments will team up to offer a bi-weekly garden club for youth.
