Saying that the year 2020 has been a challenging year is an understatement. When personal contact is the only way you’ve done a job, it can seem impossible to do that same job without having face to face contact. Your mind starts turning in a thousand different directions trying to find” THE” way that works to get your information to where it needs to be. Technology has come a long way in the world we live in today, but being comfortable in using that same technology is very challenging. 

With that being said, the Owsley County Expanded Food Nutrition Education Program Assistant had to step out of her comfort zone and into a virtual world. From the time span of April through August the assistant reached a total of six thousand four hundred and thirty-six citizens of Owsley County through online post. Citizens received information on, staying healthy during a pandemic, proper hand washing, budgeting, food safety, pantry stables and Cook Wild Kentucky recipes. 

When times change and job requirements change we to must be willing to change.
