Activities for Home


Livingston County Cooperative Extension Service worked hard during the quarantine to stay engaged and relevant to our community’s needs.  Livingston ANR offered information to the community by utilizing social media outlets, such as Facebook, live videos, traditional newsletters, and activity and learning packets.

               One unique way our office kept relevant to the communities needs was making activity learning kits. We also provided multiple drop off points throughout the County where the kits could be picked up. Livingston County Extension office worked as a team to provide weekly activity packets that ranged from adult home gardening kits to pollinator learning kits. Over a fourteen week period our office made and distributed over 1,069 activity learning packets to adults and children.
