Home & Family The foundation of Buncombe County is the family. Many of Buncombe County Extension's programs provide families with research-based answers to their day-to-day challenges. Extension is ready with answers on controlling household insects, protecting well-water, maintaining a septic system, managing a family budget, helping families improve their eating habits, or dealing with the special concerns related to early childhood, parenting, or aging. One of the unique programs offered by the Buncombe County Cooperative Extension is the five-series basic home maintenance course. Through the course, homeowners or future homeowners become more knowledgeable on making their own home repairs. This results in a financial savings to the homeowner in addition to repairs completed in a timely manner.
