We are excited to welcome this year's summer intern Carah Anteck! We look forward to working with her this summer. She has already had a busy first week at the office. Check out her bio below!

Hi! My name is Carah Anteck, and I am so thrilled to be working in the ANR and 4-H programs at the Scott County Cooperative Extension Office this summer! I recently graduated from Berea College with a B.S. in Agriculture and Natural Resources, and a B.A. in Environmental Sciences with a specialization in Spanish. Growing up in a small, rural village of Ohio, my passion for agriculture has always been a part of me. From being an FFA officer all 4 years of high school to helping at the Berea College horticulture and urban farms, I have enjoyed every experience I've had working in the dirt. Some of my other hobbies include cooking, HIIT workouts, calisthenics, and travelling while trying new foods.
Though I never lived on a farm myself, I enjoy working outdoors with plants, animals, and people. One of the most impactful experiences I had was working on a farm in the Andes Mountains of Peru, where I lived and studied for semester. This August, I will travel back to South America to pursue my own independent research project exploring circular food systems and food waste management in the culinary arts. Overall, I am looking forward to learning many new things this summer while also having fun working alongside an awesome team of agents.

Check out this great opportunity coming up in Scott County!

Tuesday night the Scott County Extension Office and the Scott County Farm City Committee hosted the 55th Farm City Field Day. We had an astounding attendance of 154 individuals who got to learn all about Triple J Farm while hearing from University of Kentucky Ag Extension specialists and from Kentucky Farm Bureau.

This event is not possible without our sponsors! We greatly appreciate them and their support.
