1. 4H/Extension Service District Update.
Dana Martin gave a PowerPoint presentation on the various aspects of the OSU
Extension Service in the area. Oregon State University is the Land Grant
University for Oregon, with extension services in every county. There are five
core programs, four of which are applicable to Central Oregon.
The real core of 4-H and why it is successful has to do with the six C's:
competence, confidence, connection, character, contribution,
caring/compassion. The local program is one of the most successful in the
state.
A copy of the presentation is attached for reference.
The Commissioners agree that the Extension and 4-H programs are very
worthwhile and a great benefit to the region.
2. Other Items.
The Board went into Executive Session, called under ORS 192.660(2)(d), Real
Property Negotiations. No formal action was taken.

Dear Deschutes County Commissioners,
I look forward to meeting with you on Wednesday, March 17, 1:30pm, on behalf of OSU
Extension Service and our Extension/4-H County Service District.
My presentation will share an overview of OSU Extension programs taking place in
Deschutes County and show the positive impact of this work. As you are aware, Extension
programs include 4-H Youth Development, Agriculture/Small Farms, Home and Commercial
Horticulture, Forestry & Natural Resources and Family & Community Health.
To give you an idea of specific programs, I've attached two examples of upcoming Small
Farms educational events.
It is exciting to be involved with a productive and effective organization that focuses on
strengthening communities and economies, sustaining natural resources, and promoting
healthy families and individuals. I look forward to sharing this information with you.
Sincerely,
Kam- 77%4 ~

Successful Whole Farm
Management Workshop Series
The OSU Oregon Small Farms team is collaborating with partners to offer the Growing Farm:
Successful Whole Farm Management series in 2010. Growing Fauns was launched in 2009 in
four regions of Oregon, where 105 farmers benefited from the series.
This course is designed to provide beginning specialty crop and livestock farmers with the tools
and knowledge to manage both the biological and financial risks of farming. Participants will
assess their farm enterprise and gain the ability to develop a whole farm plan. Guest farmers
will share their experiences and help you avoid some common mistakes when first starting out.
The workshops address these six broad topics:
• Dream It: Strategic Planning (goals, resource inventory, planning your dream)
• Do It: Farm Operations (equipment, renewable energy, season extenders, irrigation
efficiency, labor issues)
• Manage It: Farm Finance (business management, financial strategies, funding options)
• Sell It: Marketing Strategies (strategies, market options, licenses and permits)
• Grow It: Production (Soil, cold climate production and techniques)
• Keeping It: Managing Liability (managing liability, insurance, farm succession)
