Did you know that the Marion County Extension office is a "branch office of The Ohio State University? Ohio State University Extension is
funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture, The Ohio State University, and Marion County Commissioners. Our Marion County office is your front door to The Ohio State University. We are the world's largest non-formal educational system. Our practical educational programs combine the needs of local citizens and communities, with new research and technical information.
A few areas of focus are agriculture, 4-H youth development, environment, family and consumer sciences and leadership. These programs are continuously being evaluated and updated to meet the changing needs and issues facing our community.
Overall, Extension's mission is to help improve and strengthen the lives of Ohioans and we want to start right here in Marion County. We have answers for communities and individuals. Our clients are Ohioans - rural, urban, all ages, sizes and races. Our clients are YOU.
Please feel free to contact us at any time. We look forward to hearing from you!
