Ontario County Cornell Cooperative Extension

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Ontario County assists and educates residents, businesses and professionals in a broad spectrum of topics by providing research-based information on agriculture, horticulture, nutrition and wellness, environmental protection, and offering 4-H programs.

Experts from our main program areas— Agriculture, Horticulture, Ag in the Classroom and 4-H Youth Development—reach tens of thousands of adults, children, professionals and businesses each year.

We bring this free and low-cost knowledge directly to people though workshops, 4-H clubs, library and schools programs. We also work one-on-one with farmers and growers to strengthen these industries, bringing tourism and advancing economic development.
