MSU Extension serves Teton County in the areas of wellness, mental health, family consumer science, 4-H and youth programming. We provide services to agricultural producers focusing on crops, forage, and livestock. Agricultural diagnostic services, including nitrate testing, hay certification, insect and plant identification are available. Small acreage landowners and homeowners take advantage of services related to landscaping, shelterbelt management and horticulture. The economy is influenced by agricultural production, small business ownership, cooperatives, and e-commuting. The communities of Teton County -- Choteau, Dutton, Fairfield, Power, Pendroy, and Bynum -- are bordered by the Rocky Mountains to the west and plains to the east. In 2020 the team included Jane Wolery, Jamie Smith and Sharla Hinman. Karen Forseth joined MSU Extension in November. We are dedicated to meeting the needs and serving people in Teton County. MSU Extension faculty and staff in Teton County sent 14,000 emails related to serving clients, 650 documented calls and office visits for education and information, in addition to participation in classes offered.
