The Russell County Extension Office is expected to soon have a new home.
The extension office is planning to relocate to a new facility in the area of the Russell County Industrial Park. Plans are to build a new facility adjacent to the new SEED Academy off French Valley Road.
Jonathan Oakes, the county extension agent for agriculture and natural resources, said a new facility is needed to provide more space for meetings and programs.
Plans are to seek bids for the project soon in hopes of beginning construction on the facility in 2026.
The extension office has been at its current location in the Middletown area for many years.
We’ll provide more details as they are available.
