Welcome to the Newton County Purdue Extension Office, located at 4117 240 West, Morocco, Indiana. As a dedicated local government office, we are committed to enhancing lives and livelihoods in our community by providing trusted and research-based educational resources. As part of the Cooperative Extension Service, one of the nation's largest networks of scientific research and education, we collaborate with colleges, universities, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to serve communities across America.

At Purdue Extension, we focus on key areas such as Agriculture and Natural Resources, Human and Health Sciences, Economic and Community Development, and 4-H Youth programs. Our efforts are designed to empower individuals and strengthen communities by delivering relevant and reliable information.

We are excited to offer programs like the NWI Vegetable Growers Series, where participants can earn PARP Credits. Our faculty, in collaboration with the Health and Human Sciences Extension, recently secured a $118,900 grant from the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) to support initiatives like the "Families..." project, aimed at fostering family development and well-being.
