Volunteer
Volunteers are very important to Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tompkins County. Over 1,200 individuals volunteer their time to a variety of Extension activities, contributing over 73,000 hours each year!
Through duties as diverse as teaching others to prune trees or make compost, answering callers' questions on consumer or gardening issues, mentoring young people as they acquire new skills, or serving as board members or on committees that guide our work, volunteers represent Extension's far-reaching roots in our community.
