Helping new residents in Chatham County make informed decisions.
| A new home may be the beginning of a big adventure. Whether you are moving into an
existing house or seeing your property cleared and a building come “out of the ground,” eventually
you will move in, get settled, and make further improvements such as landscaping and gardening. You may have lived in this area all your life or you may have moved from another part of the world. If you are already a resident, perhaps you are acquainted with North Carolina Cooperative Extension; if not we would like to make your acquaintance. As a part of both North Carolina State University and your local Chatham County government, our role is to help you get the information you need in order to make your own decisions based on an established, researched knowledge base. This leaflet is intended to address some of the concerns we have learned to expect of new residents. In many cases we are only involved after problems have grown out of proportion. We hope that this information helps you make some informed decisions that will not have to be corrected afterwards. If you have questions, our staff includes agents with expertise in home gardening and landscaping, family and consumer issues, livestock and forage, sustainable agriculture, 4-H, and more. We don’t always have the answer. But we often know where to look. Give us a call at 919.542.8202.
