SNAP-Ed

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education Program (SNAP-Ed) helps people with limited incomes enjoy healthy foods on a budget. It is a free, confidential nutrition education program to help you and your family manage your food resources during tough economic times.

Join us for a FREE one-time workshop-- or a few classes -- that will help you learn to fill your grocery cart and dinner table with healthy and inexpensive foods. Our nutrition educators will help you learn about cooking, meal planning, healthy food shopping on a budget, nutrition, food safety, weight control and physical activity, and much more.

Workshops Support: 

• A healthy relationship with food 
• Simple, delicious recipes made in minutes 
• Smart shopping strategies that save time and money 
• healthy meals and snacks that children love 
• meal planning, preparation, and food safety tips 
• Understanding and comparing foods using nutrition facts labels 
• Small steps in pursuit of healthy lifestyle goals 

Our classes are FREE and meet in convenient locations throughout the community like food pantries, libraries, and housing sites. Visit our calendar to see where we'll be every day, or call us to find a class near you!
