Cornell Cooperative Extension in Monroe County
The Cornell Cooperative Extension program is meant to be a local hub of “research, information, and expertise,” all an arm’s length away. The Horticulture Program is particularly relevant here, as it exists to provide research-based horticultural information for everyone, from the home gardener to the commercial horticulture businesses person.
