Marion House Adult Daycare Agriculture Day

May 31,2024

The problem

The Marion House Adult Daycare is lacking funds to have meaningful and impactful educational programs for its participants. 

The educational program response

They requested more agriculture programming and nutrition programming. Our office NEP assistant and I have collaborated to deliver both agriculture programming and nutritional programming at their adult daycare location in Lebanon. 

The participants/target audience

Participants range in age from 40 to over the age of 70. Some participants have hearing impairments, vision impairments and medical issues.  Our office planned an agriculture day for the adult daycare to visit our office, learn about farm animals and agriculture. They also got to try recipes from Plate It Up.
