CCE Lewis County Prepares for Its 2024 Winter Programs
Initiatives include monthly beekeeping meetings and a
tractor safety course
Lowville, NY - Cornell
Cooperative Extension Lewis County is gearing up for another year of
impactful programs focused on community development and agricultural
excellence. Through its partnership with Cornell University and other Land
Grant universities from across the nation, CCE Lewis County connects people
with the information they need on topics such as commercial and sustainable
agriculture, 4-H youth development programs, energy efficiency, and more. Some
of the upcoming programs in 2024 are:
·
4-H Dairy Bowl
·
4-H Homeschool Club
·
4-H Robotics Club
·
4-H Afterschool Programs
·
4-H Sparks Club
·
Ag in the Classroom
·
Farm to School Program
In addition to
the above programs, beekeeper meetings are held at the Lewis County
Education Center for Local beekeepers covering honey production, hive
management, and other challenges facing the industry. CCE Lewis County is also
set to host its annual Tractor Safety course—an essential six-week program
providing youth with safety education, hands-on experience, and a deeper
understanding of tractors and machinery in the spring of 2024.
By bridging the
gap between university resources and local needs, CCE Lewis County
continues to play a vital role in fostering growth, sustainability, and community.
