The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension of Yavapai County has been serving area residents since 1914 through educational programs. We represent a unique three way partnership of the United States Department of Agriculture, the University of Arizona and Yavapai County to provide local citizens access to the Land Grant University System. Our roots in communities help us understand local needs and put university expertise and connections where they can make a difference – improving lives and communities.
Free workshops will be held May 12 in Prescott and on June 9th in Cottonwood.

Participants will be able calculate rainwater yields and how to size the collection system accordingly.
