Who We Are, What We Do

CSU Extension is the front door to Colorado State University. Our mission, concisely put, is to help you put knowledge to work.

Our office brings the resources of Colorado State University directly to you.  Our staff is dedicated to providing ALL residents of Pueblo County with informal, non-credit education.  As part of a nation-wide system, we use the latest research to help you learn more about: youth development and involvement (Pueblo Youth Naturally "PYN" & 4-H), gardening & horticulture, healthy eating/nutrition, food safety, family relationships, personal finances, anger management, parenting, natural resources, agriculture, and much more.

Please check our UPCOMING EVENTS page for information on all of the classes, seminars and programs that your Pueblo County Extension office offers!
