Cornell Cooperative Extension puts knowledge to work in pursuit of economic vitality, ecological sustainability and social well-being.
It began with a simple, practical, brilliant idea to connect the knowledge, resources, and research of Cornell University with the people of New York State. To help them tackle challenges. Take care of their families. Build businesses. And improve communities. All while working collaboratively, for a greater good.
That connection is the Cornell Cooperative Extension.
Approximately 100 years later, this One Great Idea is burning brighter than ever. Each year, more than 10 million people throughout New York State participate in extension workshops, seminars, meetings, and tours, or request specific help or advice from Extension personnel.
Together with the people of New York State, CCE is taking on some of greatest challenges of the new century, such as fostering energy independence, sustainable agriculture, childhood obesity, and youth, family and community programs.
Over the course of the past century, many things have changed, but the spirit and mission of CCE remain the same.
The Cornell Cooperative Extension educational system enables people to improve their lives and communities through partnerships that put experience and research-based knowledge to work.
