Introducing Cordelia Collinson, the new Extension Agent for Chester County! Cordelia is from northern Virginia and was first introduced to agriculture through a summer camp on a dairy farm in Pennsylvania. This experience sparked her passion for agriculture, leading her to pursue an education in soil and plant sciences. Before joining Penn State Extension, Cordelia worked in agricultural consulting, research, and youth education, including roles in Southeast Pennsylvania.

As an Extension Agent she will work with producers and community partners throughout Chester County, connecting them with Extension resources and educational programs.
