Missoula County is a dynamic landscape in western Montana which combines all the best parts of Montana into a thriving county with rivers, forests, local foods, and a large urban city center. While the city of Missoula is home to the University of Montana, serves as a regional shopping hub, and has a variety of entertainment options, Missoula County boasts miles of blue-ribbon trout rivers, forested mountain slopes, numerous outdoor recreation opportunities, pristine mountain lakes, and small communities exemplifying living in the west. Missoula County has something for everyone. Missoula County MSU Extension has four full time Extension Agents, two Nutrition Educators, and a full time 4-H Assistant. MSU Extension partners with the Missoula County Weed District to offer support and programs to all of Missoula County.
