The County reports on new UMaine Extension location in Houlton
A new location for the University of Maine Cooperative Extension in Aroostook County may result in improved services and educational workshops, The County reported. Previously housed on the third floor of the Aroostook County Sheriff’s Office, the UMaine Extension office is now located at the Houlton Higher Education Center. The addition of UMaine Extension to the center means the facility is capable of delivering education and learning for the entire human lifespan, according to Mari Glatter, 4-H youth development professional with UMaine Extension. “Virtually any topic that you could wish to explore, or help youth to learn, can be discovered by walking through those doors,” she said.
