Did you know that both Magrath and the Natural Resources Libraries have puzzles out to help you take a brain break and de-stress? Congratulations CFANS student Alyssa Crump finished our puzzle at NRL today!

“Her enthusiasm during the interview convinced me that she was very capable and would easily receive acceptance from the area farmers once they could see the depth of knowledge she could bring forth and her willingness to find answers to their questions,” Notch says. “As a member of our local Extension Committee, I hope Dana will be around for a long time.” Have we mentioned lately how much we love agents and educators?

‘We deserve a place in this sphere’ Dana Adams, University of Minnesota Extension educator, marries her fascination with dairy animals with desire to help livestock farmers.

Congratulations, farewell to our colleague, mentor, and friend, librarian Julie Kelly on her retirement. https://www.continuum.umn.edu/2022/01/mentor-and-more/
