Extension Homemakers Are Key to Lifetime Learning

Extension Homemaker group members help to extend the resources of the University of Maine Cooperative Extension into their communities through educational opportunities and service projects. Local members in most counties in Maine belong to their local community group, their county group, and the state group, Maine Extension Homemakers Council.

Anyone who is interested in learning new information to improve their personal, family, and community life.

You may join by calling your local UMaine Extension county office. They will connect you with the local groups in your area.

By being a member of Extension Homemakers, you will have the opportunity to learn with others, make new friends, and contribute to your community, county, and state. You will gain additional leadership skills and be able to share your interests and talents with others.
