Local Roots, Global Reach Patrons
In Recognition.......
The following individuals and organizations are recognized for their contributions and support of the UC ANR South Coast Research and Extension Center as it designs and implements an ambitious plan for capital improvements, program expansion and community outreach. In the First Phase, we will be adding a multi-purpose meeting center and office space where we will bring together our many Orange County Cooperative Extension programs under one roof for the first time. Our partner, the Orange County Farm Bureau, will be joining us on-site as well, adding to this dynamic and collaborative environment. This and subsequent phases will enable us to deepen the impact and dissemination of our research efforts, expand our educational programs for youth and adults and strengthen our role as a valued community resource through new and expanded partnerships.
