The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) in Gardiner, ME, offers vital nutrition and health education to income-eligible adults with children, particularly those benefiting from SNAP, WIC, or Head Start. Our free, community-focused program empowers families to learn essential skills for healthier living by teaching them to cook nutritious recipes, make informed food choices, save money while shopping, ensure food safety, and increase physical activity. Although our University of Maine Cooperative Extension offices are currently closed to protect community health, our dedicated educators are committed to providing accessible EFNEP nutrition education classes remotely, whether one-on-one or in small groups. As we prepare to reopen county offices following safety guidelines, we encourage you to stay informed about our services and updates, and join us in building a healthier community for families in our region.
