Week #1 Region 17

From staff meetings, to shoveling a dead bird off the entrance, to more meetings, it’s been a heck of a first week here in region 17. This week we hit the ground running by meeting the members of the Story County Extension staff, and working with them to meet community partners. We built our own office chairs (lucky us), and rearranged the office to better fit the three new interns.

Friday we spent the morning in the Beloit Garden, heroically weeding the thistles from the garlic and beet patches. Afterwards, we delivered 2 boxes of lettuce and a bag of rhubarb to Food at First. This week was packed with adventure and we’re thrilled for next week’s escapades.
