We explore how county agents plan classes, from popular homeowner topics like tomatoes, strawberries, microgreens, and apple grafting to hands-on library programs and commercial grower support. This episode highlights the value of local Extension offices, free or low-cost educational opportunities, and how community input helps shape programs that meet real needs.
