The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) in Orrington, ME, is dedicated to helping income-eligible adults with children improve their health and wellbeing through practical nutrition and health education. This free program is available for those eligible for assistance through programs like SNAP, WIC, or Head Start. Participants will gain valuable skills, including cooking nutritious recipes, choosing healthy foods, budgeting for groceries, ensuring food safety, and adopting a more active lifestyle. While our physical offices are currently closed to ensure community safety, our committed educators are providing distance learning options, allowing participants to engage in one-on-one or small group sessions. As we prepare to reopen our county offices in accordance with University of Maine guidelines, we invite you to stay updated through our resources and join us in fostering healthier families in our community.
