Purpose:
To recognize County Agents who have developed and implemented innovative programming and
outreach efforts with urban agriculture clientele.
The Center for Urban Agriculture would like to recognize Extension Agents that have found new solutions to old
problems, tried successful new methods of educational delivery, and/or have been able to engage new urban extension
audiences. One of the greatest challenges working in Urban Areas is the shear volume of people to serve and finding
ways to promote our programs and impacts in a competitive mass media market. Please share your success stories with us.
