Extension relies on financial, in-kind and volunteer support from the Hartford County community. Resources are spent on the programs themselves, not promotion.
You may have utilized one or more of our programs, which are provided with little fanfare or publicity. Certainly a neighbor has! Won’t you lend support to these programs by making a tax-deductible donation to help the Hartford County Extension Center thrive and grow in Hartford County? Even a small donation makes a difference!
