About Us

Welcome to Cornell Cooperative Extension of Chemung County!

Since 1913, Cornell Cooperative Extension of  Chemung County (CCE-Chemung) has responded to the needs of local residents with unbiased, research-based information, tools and education that people have come to depend on and trust. Our programs are developed in direct response to community input, and are based on the most current information available from Cornell and other Land Grant universities from across the nation.

The mission of Cooperative Extension is to enable people to improve their lives and communities through partnerships that put experience and research knowledge to work. Extension staff and trained volunteers deliver education programs, conduct applied research, and encourage community collaborations. Our educators connect people with the information they need on topics such as commercial and consumer agriculture; nutrition and health; youth and families; community economic development; and sustainable natural resources. Our ability to match university resources with community needs helps us play a vital role in the lives of individuals, families, businesses, and communities throughout Chemung County.

CCE-Chemung is a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization and is part of the Cooperative Extension land grant system, a partnership between County, State, and Federal governments that is administered in New York State through Cornell University. Each county's Cooperative Extension association operates independently and works to serve the needs of the county in which it is located.  CCE-Chemung is a subordinate governmental university and not a part of Cornell University.

We welcome your ideas and involvement. If you'd like more information on how to get involved, please contact us.
