Fayette County Extension Family and Consumer Sciences agent and the Nutrition Education Program assistants delivered a monthly workshop based upon the 2019 Food & Nutrition Calendar recipes.  ‘Cooking through the Calendar’ featured exploration, discussion, demonstration and sampling of seasonal food.  Ten workshops were presented with 187 participating and 75% with limited income.  This series’ audience consisted of 10% African American, 1% Asian and 89% Caucasian.  Ages ranged from 35-80 with 80% females and 20% males.  A 3 month program survey indicated that 75% were introduced to new foods and new preparation techniques.  Fifty-five percent prepared one or more featured recipes in their own homes.  The program’s objectives included an increased opportunity to try new, local foods; learn about new food preparation techniques and equipment; and gain new knowledge relative to the nutritional value of foods locally grown or available in Kentucky.  This is the second year for this program and attendance and participation increased two fold.
