About the photograph

Jane McKimmon thought that education was very important!

Extension Club members wanted to help her build a place where classes and meetings could be held. They gave $100,000 they had made from selling eggs, butter, and other farm products to NC State to help build the Jane S. McKimmon Extension Education Center.
