Expert Response
Due to county budget cuts, Extension Services does not have an office in Multnomah County that can assist with food preservation or gauge testing. However, gauge testing is available at the Washington County Extension Office (Monday – Friday, 8 AM – 4 PM). Our Washington Extension Service Office is located at 1815 NE 169th Place, Suite 1000, Beaverton.
