The outreach activities include, e.g., offices in each county that provide info for gardeners (today, "when to release your Monarchs"), training programs such as the Master Gardener®, plant clinics where you can take your sick plants and/or the bugs eating them. Professional-grade services are available for commercial ranchers and framers. Another great thing: the 4-H programs (one of our best antidotes to the opiate crisis); they teach young people farming and animal husbandry.

Wendy,
Extension should be capitalized. It's the department at US universities that supports, trains, advises/etc. the public (from farmers to gardeners) with issues related to nature/food/.... Usually part of the Agricultural School/College. See, e.g., our local outfit and what they do:
http://extension.oregonstate.edu/
I.e., the term should be explained, not translated (proper name).
