The Clarke County Extension Council is elected by the people of Clarke County. The Clarke County Extension Council, county staff, and ISU Extension and Outreach staff work together to provide research-based learning opportunities for our people. Through this partnership, we carry Iowa State University’s land-grant mission across Clarke County.
- Council meetings are typically held the 3rd Monday of each month, promptly at 5:00pm at the Clarke County Extension office boardroom, located at 709 Furnas Drive, Suite 1, Osceola, Iowa 50213.

The Clarke County Extension Council allows time for the public to present information or opinions on any topic to the elected council. Each participant will be limited to two (2) minutes. This is not a discussion with the council and no action will be taken at this meeting. Ideas shared may become agenda items at future meetings. No defamation of character or profanity will be tolerated during this forum and office personnel issues will be directed to the proper chain of command and not discussed in this forum. The person addressing the council will be required to share their name and address. The Extension Council Chairperson has the right to modify or combine speakers if the same information or opinion is being delivered.
