UW-Extension Brown County

Extension was created as a division of UW-Madison in 1907. Extension utilizes research from the University of Wisconsin in providing education and technical assistance in the areas of 1) agriculture and natural resources, and 2) youth, family and community development. Extension staff provide educational programs for youth, families, school districts, human service organizations, businesses, local units of government, and farms with a focus on addressing community needs. University research and education is designed to improve health and the environment, enhance the quality of life, and increase profitability for farming operations of all sizes. Extension educators engage with Brown County residents in transforming lives and communities.

We apply university research, knowledge and resources to meet the needs of Brown County residents.
