Johnson County K-State Extension
We are dedicated to a safe, sustainable, competitive food and fiber system and to strong healthy communities, families, and youth through integrated research, analysis, and education.
Bringing K-State to Johnson County
Here at the K-State Johnson County Extension Office, we pledge to serve our community in a variety of ways, from health and nutrition, to agricultural and horticultural needs, money management, and much more. We exist to help others through Kansas State University knowledge and information in order to better serve our communities, specializing in problem-solving, education, and community service.
Since 1917, the Johnson County Extension Office has dedicated our time and resources to ensure that the community of Johnson County continues to grow and thrive.
What's Happening
Join us Saturday, September 26, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Pollinator Prairie for a free, family-friendly celebration of the monarch butterfly's incredible migration. Enjoy tagging demonstrations, educational exhibits, a native plant sale, games, and more. Learn more and plan your visit.
For a limited time this fall, Johnson County residents can participate in a new pilot program offering an enhanced Gardener's Package as part of their annual free soil test. In addition to standard soil fertility recommendations, this expanded test measures organic matter and nitrogen, providing a more complete picture of your soil's health to help you grow stronger lawns, gardens, trees, and landscapes.
