About Meigs County
 
We are a "branch office" of Ohio State University

Did you know that the Meigs County Extension office is a "branch office" of Ohio State University? The Ohio State University Extension is funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture, The Ohio State University and Meigs County Commissioners. Our Meigs County Office is your front door to the Ohio State University.

We are the world's largest nonformal educational system. Our practical educational programs combine the needs of local citizens and communities with new research and technical information. The four areas of focus are  4-H Youth Development, Agriculture and Natural Resources, Community Development, and Family & Consumer Science. These programs are continually being evaluated and updated to meet the changing needs and issues facing our community.

Our goal is to help improve and strengthen the lives of Ohioans and we want to start right here in Meigs County. We have practical advice, sensible solutions, and down-to-earth answers to your questions about everything from gardening to nutrition. Our clients are Ohioans - rural, urban, all ages, sizes and races. Our clients are YOU.
