CALLING ALL FOOD REVOLUTIONISTS!


 The Mesa County Health Department has a program called Cooking Matters™ and they need your help!

Cooking Matters™ empowers families with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to prepare healthy and affordable meals.

The idea is to bring individuals, parents, or families together with a culinary educator to learn easy ways to plan, purchase, and prepare healthy, tasty, and affordable foods at home.

What a great concept! They help that is needed is volunteers to educate, assist in the class, shop for groceries (couponers please apply!!!), and to get the word out.

Not only will this benefit the current situation in the homes of so many children in the Grand Valley, but imagine the lasting effects if they learn now how to budget, plan, and cook for their children.

If you are interested in being involved please contact Maran Parry at the Mesa County Health Department. Her number is 970-248-6904 and her e-mail: maran.parry@mesacounty.us
