Improving Our Lives Through Education

For more than 75 years, Pennsylvanians have relied on Penn State Cooperative Extension for up-to-date information and new ways to solve individual and community problems. Extension, an arm of the land-grant university, is funded cooperatively by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and state and county governments.

The backbone of this community-based educational network is people working together-- extension agents, volunteers, and faculty sharing the resources and expertise of Penn State with local residents.

Penn State Cooperative Extension-Bucks County offers a broad range of educational programs in areas vital to the quality of life including:

  • Agricultural Production
  • Commercial Horticulture
  • 4-H Youth Development
  • Consumer Horticulture
  • Food Safety/Human Nutrition
  • Child Care Worker Training
  • Family Resource Management
