Major Program: Cook Wild Kentucky
Plan of Work: Develop Individuals for Volunteer Roles
Outcome: Intermediate Outcome
The Paintsville Lake Activities Nature Edible Trail has been high on the FCS priority list for five years. Berry Bushes have been planted, American Chestnut trees, grapes, apple trees, nut trees, mulched pathways, picnic tables, a shelter, and cleared trails, have all been accomplishments to date. This year we held the first Cook Wild program, live and in person - in the wild. We prepared Kentucky Burgoo made with rabbit and venison, Poke Burgers, Paw Paw Pancakes, and snacked on persimmons. Twenty five attended this event and all watched a demonstration on how to cut fowl. The Paw Paw Pancakes were a favorite among the children attending.
