HELLO!  Would you like to know more about planning meals? Stretching your food dollars? New and nutritious recipes for your family? Eating better for better health? If so, then you may want to know more about this program.

The Nutrition Education Program (NEP) is a FREE service of the University of Kentucky  Cooperative Extension Service, and is available to families raising young children, pregnant or parenting teens and seniors.

I am the NEP assistant in your county, and I am available to teach lessons to groups on topics such as the food guide pyramid, nutrients needed for health, food safety, feeding your children, gardening, food preparation, and budgeting your food dollars.

Also, I can help locate resources you may need. Please feel free to call me at (606) 593-5109 or email me at the link above. I look forward to hearing from you.
