Great talks April 6 as University of Illinois Extension state advisory council chair, Reginald Summerrise, and a team of Extension educators met with Congressional staff on Capitol Hill to discuss #agriculture, #nutritionsecurity, #waterquality, #4-H #youthdevelopment, and more.
.@ACESIllinois and Illinois Extension hosted @LtGovStratton yesterday in her #AgConnectsUsAll listening tour. We share her passion for greater equity and inclusion in the food and ag sector and addressing food insecurity in Illinois.
And to wrap things up on our #UofILStateTour we had another meeting with @uie_general at their South Suburban Cook County Research and Demonstration Farm! We truly had a wonderful time discussing our urban agriculture program with you and finding ways to partner in the future!
It was amazing to see the great work that @ILextension is doing in Northern Illinois on our #UofILStateTour! Thank you for your service to our communities and your stellar representation of the @UofILSystem!
Extension colleagues and partners in Southern Illinois met with U of I President Tim Killeen and Chancellor Robert Jones today. The land grant mission at work! @UofILSystem@Illinois_Alma@uie_general
Thank you @uie_general for an amazing meeting today on our #UofILStateTour where we discussed food insecurity and immunization efforts with local partners!
Honored to meet a few high school and college age students from all across our state today at the Capitol. They are a part of the @Illinois4H program which is an amazing program that has produced leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, stewards and builders we need in our state.👊🏾
