The Jackson County Agriculture and Natural Resources agent worked alongside the Jackson County 4H agent, staff assistants, and program assistants to create a social media presence on facebook, Instagram, and youtube. The agents made weekly educational videos related to their own program area that reached audiences during a global pandemic outbreak when in-person meetings were not possible.
