Staff Spotlight

Craig Chase has spent a large portion of his time lately helping facilitate the merger of the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach Local Foods and Value Added Agriculture programs. The two programs were combined into the Farm, Food and Enterprise Development program in April 2019.

“The integration between the former Local Foods program and Value Added Agriculture program allows us to meet a broader program need – starting either new farms or value added businesses related to food,” Chase said. “I think combining the two programs will add strength to being able to meet the needs of that clientele, especially when adding the business development component.”
