Meet the Educator
Emily Kring
Thank you for visiting the Jay County Purdue Extension Agriculture and Natural Resources website! My name is Emily Kring and I started at Jay County Purdue Extension in May 2023. My role as the Agriculture and Natural Resources Educator is to provide community, needs-based education to individuals within our community. My goal is to be a resource to the community in subjects surrounding soil health, water quality, agriculture, wildlife and land management, and more! We offer programs to the community such as, "Nature of Teaching", "Annie's Project", "Keeping the Business in the Family", and much more!
