With a full staff, the Whitley County Extension office needed more space for meetings and storage.  An adjoining 10 acre property with a brick house and two large metal buildings became available.  Due in part to the relationship between the ANR agent and the property owner, an opportunity to purchase the property was presented to the Whitley County Extension District Board.  An agreement was reached and the deal closed.  The Whitley County Extension office gained three meeting rooms and much needed storage space for shared use equipment and supplies.  Future plans include a demonstration garden, tree plantings, a wildlife food plot, and an outdoor activity area.
