University of Illinois Extension

Welcome to Our Website!

University of Illinois Extension provides Grundy County with a wide variety of research-based information and program opportunities. The Grundy County unit staff along with center educators work with all ages of individuals in agencies, organizations, families, communities and businesses to help them learn the most recent findings in topics ranging from water quality to food safety to landscaping to leadership development. Along with community members and center educators, the unit educators identify, analyze and prioritize the issues affecting local citizens. In addition to issues recognized on the federal and state level, Extension's goal is to "help people put knowledge to work."

Today's Features

MAKE A DIFFERENCE - Your used printer cartridges and cells phones can make a difference! We've just started a new recycling program, collecting used inkjet and laser cartridges and cell phones.
