The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) at the University of Maine Cooperative Extension in Ellsworth, ME, is dedicated to empowering income-eligible adults with children through free nutrition and health education. If you qualify for programs like SNAP, WIC, or Head Start, our program offers a welcoming environment to help you learn essential skills such as cooking nutritious recipes, selecting healthy foods, managing grocery expenses, ensuring food safety, and increasing physical activity. While the physical locations are temporarily closed to support public health, our committed educators are ready to provide EFNEP classes through virtual formats, one-on-one sessions, or small group settings. As county offices prepare to reopen in July, we encourage you to stay connected for the latest updates on our services and resources to enhance your family's nutrition and well-being.
