Robin Young has served CSUE for 12 years as a county director and natural resources/ag agent.

Currently, she is working with local residents to help them expand their knowledge in growing food in the mountains and co-teaches cottage food courses. Robin offers the Colorado Master Gardener program and also helps facilitate the Colorado Building Farmers Program.
