For the citizens of Mason County…
Each WVU Extension Office provides the public with information on just about any topic, either from office faculty knowledge specialties, office publications, or on-line resources. Extension programming reflects the needs and interests within the local community. As a federal, state and local partnership Extension programming brings together knowledge and resources from a host of sources, but all programs are not available in each county.
