Keeping In Touch during a pandemic

Author: Lisa Lamb

Planning Unit: Garrard County CES

Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Garrard County KY enrolls 1,135 students in our County school system. In late March of this year as we all know everything stopped even children going to school in person. Along with myself the FSC Agent we were able to figure out away to continue to reach out to the children in our county. We developed Fun Newsletters, which included coloring sheets for the younger kids, word search puzzles for the older kids and the parents, and always a healthy kid friendly recipe. We were able to continue to educate the children in our county by providing this resource for 75% of the enrolled children in Garrard County. The schools were glad to have these to provide a healthy activity to include with the lunches served to the children of our county.
