Dubuque County Extension
In these trying economic times, improving the quality of life in Iowa continues to be at the heart of ISU Extension’s work: collaborating with communities to reduce poverty; helping farmers and consumers enhance energy efficiency; educating Iowans about food, feed and fuel issues; and helping companies develop strategies to improve their bottom line.
On June 1, our office will open to the public at 8:00 A.M. We look forward to seeing you and would encourage all visitors to wear a mask and to practice physical distancing. We will be here to answer the phone with any questions at (563)583-6496 or you may email us at xdubuque@iastate.edu if you feel more comfortable in doing so. Thank you for your continued trust.
