Extension To Go Bags

The Owsley County Extension Service and the Expanded Food Nutrition Education Program Assistant prepared Extension To Go Bags for the citizens of Owsley County during a changing and difficult time. Serving the citizens of Owsley County and getting information out to the people was very challenging. 

Through the Extension To Go Bags the assistant provided information to a total of four hundred people. The bags were prepared weekly and the information placed inside consisted of recipes, family activities, budgeting, menu planning and think your drink, etc.

Adults and children were excited to pick up their Extension to go Bags weekly.
