About ISU Extension and Outreach: Fayette County

Fayette County Extension Council members are elected by the voters of Fayette County to serve four-year terms.  They oversee the planning, preparation, marketing, and delivery of the Extension educational programs in the county.  Every county in Iowa has an Extension Council.  Extension Councils provide, through a unique partnership with Iowa State University and other federal and state organizations, research-based, unbiased information and education to help citizens make better decisions.

Our Partnerships:

Iowa State University Extension is a proud partner of the Northeast Iowa Food & Fitness Initiative. We believe northeast Iowa is a unique place where all residents and guests experience, celebrate and promote healthy locally grown food with abundant opportunities for physical activity and play EVERY DAY. Healthier people make stronger families and vibrant communities.

The Northeast Iowa Food & Farm Coalition has been formed to begin implementation of the strategic plan designed to build a stronger local food and farm economy in Northeast Iowa. The Coalition’s mission is to support the development and marketing of locally grown agriculture products to enhance the lives of local citizens.
