What is University of Maine Cooperative Extension?
UMaine Extension is your doorway to University of Maine expertise. We put university research to work—in homes, businesses, farms, and communities—in every corner of Maine. We are part of the nationwide Cooperative Extension System, which works through the land-grant universities in each U.S. state. Maine’s land-grant university is in Orono at The University of Maine. In addition to our state offices in Orono, we have a network of county-based offices staffed by experts who provide practical, locally based solutions for farmers, small business owners, kids, parents, consumers, and others.
