Major Program: Science, Engineering, and Technology

Plan of Work: Unrelated to a specified County Plan of Work

Outcome: Initial Outcome

“Grab Bag” programs during the Covid 19 became the new way of teaching and reaching our clientele.

The 4-H Agent, Family & Consumer Science Agent, and Nutrition Education Program Assistant,  partnered to provide 75 grab and go kits per week that included several SNAP recipes, Plate It Up recipes and material along with information teaching others where their food comes from, how to grow, and then prepare enables them to have access to healthier foods.

Other Grab and Go Bags water fun, environmental education, physical activity, military support and STEM activities

While these grab bags aren’t as involved as our usual project groups or day camps, we have kept in touch with our clientele, added new clientele  and helped them to have some new experiences
