The Long County Health Department and the Long County University of Georgia Extension Service is partnering to offer a free cooking course to residents who prepare meals for children (moms/dads; grandparents; teens; and foster parents). The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) cooking classes will take place at the health department from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. on September 26 and October 3, 10, and 17.

EFNEP teaches recipes, cooking on a budget, and food safety tips. A cooking utensil or cooking-related item is given to attendees each week at the end of the class.

Children may be brought to class. For more information, please call the Long County Health Department at 912-545-2107 or the Long County Extension office at 912-545-9549.
