Success StoryThanksgiving Baskets



Thanksgiving Baskets

Author: Sharee Schoonover

Planning Unit: Livingston County CES

Major Program: Cook Together, Eat Together

Plan of Work: Health and nutrition education, physical activity, aging, and chronic disease awareness/prevention.

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Livingston County 4-H partnered with the Family First Resource Center to provide supplies for their annual Thanksgiving Basket program. There were a total of 45 families served through Livingston County High School, Livingston County Middle School, Livingston County North Elementary, and Livingston County South Elementary. Several community partners and student organizations donated food such as turkey, green beans, cornmeal, stuffing, and other dinner supplies. Extension was able to provide recipes, proper cooking techniques, measuring utensils, aprons, cutting mats, oven mitts, fresh food guidelines, farmers market resources, a meat thermometer, and a fall-themed craft for the children within the family. The baskets were delivered by appropriate school staff to ensure guidelines were met with client protection and COVID restrictions.
