That's what Extension
Homemakers is all about.
LaRue County Extension Homemaker Organization is a part of the state association. For some, Extension Homemakers is a chance to gain information to benefit themselves and their families. For others, it's a way to become involved with a group who cares about you and the community and wants to help make it better. Many Homemakers will find opportunities to become leaders and to strengthen leadership skills.

  • Nutrition & Foods
