Senior Extension agent Adam Downing shares his reflections on more than 20 years of service connecting forestry knowledge to communities and citizens in Virginia, as well as the experiences that brought him to the field and what drives him forward. There are so many different aspects of extension work that I enjoy, but I particularly enjoy being a part of both the forestry community and the academic community," said Downing. "Having built – and continuing the build – so many relationships with other natural resource professionals, volunteers, landowners, loggers, and more is the joy of my work." #VCE Read Adam's story here: https://lnkd.in/eYEa9izm
