Author: Katherine Alexander

Planning Unit: Daviess County CES

Major Program: Plate It Up! Kentucky Proud

Plan of Work: Healthy Lifestyles

Outcome: Initial Outcome

 

The Green River Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Agents presented Plate it up! Kentucky Proud to the area Homemakers by recording it on Zoom, due to COVID.   Approximately 75 homemakers viewed the video for their lesson.

After the program, ninety-five percent increased their knowledge of retail outlets for locally grown food commodities; and sixty percent increased their knowledge regarding how the Plate it up! Kentucky Proud program is a consumer education partnership. Seventy-five percent expressed aspirations to try a Plate it up! Kentucky Proud recipe.  

The Plate it up! Kentucky Proud program can potentially demonstrate positive change in both knowledge and behavior.  Increasing the consumption of fruits and vegetables has the potential to save money in health care costs.
