The latest edition of CALS Magazine — the award-winning publication from NC State's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences — is here. And it’s packed with powerful stories of impact, innovation and resilience from across the college and our Extension network.
Headlining this issue is a moving feature on Extension's Hurricane Helene recovery efforts throughout western North Carolina, spotlighting how our experts led the charge — distributing emergency supplies, supporting agriculture and helping entire communities begin the road to recovery. From flying drones to supplying hay, from distributing food to guiding farmers, it’s an inspiring look at Extension in action during one of the most devastating storms in state history.
