"Educating with Extension"
The UF/IFAS/Monroe County Extension Office has been publishing a
monthly newsletter since August 2002. The newsletter initially
began as a monthly report distributed to the Monroe County Board of
County Commissioners starting in April 2001. For the first seven months of 2002,
the monthly report was transformed into a two-page update information
sheet until the August edition, Volume 1, Issue 8, when it became a
newsletter titled, "Extension Happenings" and then "Educating through
Extension." The newsletter was re-titled, "Educating with
Extension" for the November 2002 edition, which has been the title
ever since, although there have been many format changes along the way.
Newsletters produced over the past two years are available
below. For copies of archived newsletters, please e-mail or call
