Throughout this spring, members of the University of Wyoming College of Agriculture, Life Sciences and Natural Resources, the Wyoming Agricultural Experiment Station (WAES), and UW Extension have been celebrated for their exceptional efforts and accomplishments.

To better serve Wyoming communities with aging populations, the University of Wyoming Extension recently launched a new website.

Astrid Vargas, a University of Wyoming alumna and conservation biologist, will host a public talk, reception, and book signing for her recently published book “On a Butterfly’s Wing: Lessons from Nature on Embracing Change” Tuesday, June 10.

In its efforts to support Wyoming youth and communities, the University of Wyoming Extension has revitalized a key county-based internship program funded by the state extension office and UW College of Agriculture, Life Sciences and Natural Resources.

In the spring, Wyoming residents are busy thinking ahead to the growing season and production year. The calves and lambs hitting the ground are the market crop for this fall and the replacement females for next year. Seed catalogs arrive in the mail and greenhouses go up in the parking lots of hardware stores.

For those interested in learning how to safely preserve food at home, a University of Wyoming Extension educator will help teach an online course in collaboration with the University of Idaho Extension.
