The Bourbon County Extension Service serves local communities through a wide variety of outreach activities. These outreach efforts are designed for both groups and individuals. In response to local consumer requests the Bourbon Extension Horticulture program has delivered over 550 direct one-on-one educational consultations during the past year. These direct educational opportunities included a variety of activities including phone calls, emails, office visits, and site visits. These educational opportunities included both single and ongoing consults. These direct to consumer activities tend to be more intensive and are always custom tailored to individual situations. These efforts were supported by the full Extension Service system including plant and disease labs and on campus specialist support.
