Update on Pulaski County Extension Office

Hello 4-H and Extension Friends,

Just an update on the Pulaski Extension Office.

While our programming and schedules are still modified, we are holding regular office hours 8 am – 5 pm, M - F.  However, we recommend anyone considering a visit to the Extension Office call ahead to see if we can help you over the phone or email and prevent an unnecessary trip.

If you decide to come to our office please be respectful of state and county guidelines and wear a mask! At this point in time, our in-person programming is still on hold as we wait for safer conditions and less restrictive guidelines.

Field services such as farm visits are still being conducted when necessary. We are trying to utilize email and social media more actively to share educational resources and virtual program opportunities with you. To stay up-to-date with the Pulaski Extension Office and our programs, or statewide VCE virtual programming please visit our Facebook pages:

Pulaski County 4-H welcomes new 4-H All Star

Pulaski County 4-H welcomed Judie Willis as the newest Virginia and Pulaski County 4-H All Star on Wednesday, June 24, 2020. Judie has been part of the Virginia 4-H family for 50 years, from Hanover, to Henrico, to Pulaski, and bleeds 4-H green. 4-H All Stars is the highest recognition that a Virginia 4-H'er can achieve.

Judie strives to “Make the Best Better” for everyone in Pulaski County 4-H, being especially active with 4-H Teens In Action!, 4-H Shooting Club and 4-H Cloverbud Club, where she serves as a Club Leader. Judie is recognized by the Extension Office and 4-H community as 4-H Adult Leader Extraordinaire. She is also very supportive of our 4-H Livestock Club and any/all of our 4-H After-School Clubs if she can make it work with her schedule and her children’s schedules.

“I applaud Judie for these efforts and everyone knows that they can count on her,” says Chris Lichty, Pulaski County 4-H Extension Agent. “At 4-H Camp and around many a 4-H program, many a teen and 4-H’er have come to call her Momma Judie, from providing them with a band-aid, having a spare toothbrush or giving them a coloring book to help ease their minds. Thank you, Judie.”
