Do you enjoy cooking, eating, or just simply – food? Do you want to support efforts in the community to increase healthy eating, local foods and residents being healthier? If you answered yes to any of these, join the Extension Master Food Volunteer program! We are planning now for our first class of Extension Master Food Volunteers in McDowell County.

There will be an information session on Friday, February 7, 2020, from 10 a.m. to noon at the N.C. Cooperative Extension of McDowell County office on the second floor of 60 E. Court Street, Marion, NC

You can come and learn more about the program, opportunities for volunteering with our Extension-related programs or just learn more about what types of things we are doing in the community. Please call for more information. (828) 652-8104 or email Cathy at cathy_hohenstein@ncsu.edu.

The EMFV program, similar to the highly recognized Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteer (EMGV) program, is designed to provide volunteers the opportunity to support Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS) agents and others with food-related programming. Volunteers with the EMFV program will receive a core curriculum of 30 hours of training.

Volunteers’ support to the county’s food-related programming includes assisting with cooking, nutrition education, and food safety classes, and conducting food demonstrations in the community.

North Carolina State University and North Carolina A&T State University commit themselves to positive action to secure equal opportunity regardless of race, color, creed, national origin, religion, sex, age, or disability. In addition, the two Universities welcome all persons without regard to sexual orientation.
