learned to cook quick, easy, and
nutritious meals that the kids enjoy
eating.”
Enthusiasm for the program is
repeated again and again by
participants.
But the nutrition advisers are
quick to point out that the program
would not be successful without
the help of many other agencies
and individuals who lend support
in many different areas.
Recently, EPNEP in Lancaster
County held an appreciation recep
tion to thank supporters of the
program.

EFNEP Program Changes Lives
Susan Fisher, who oversees the
program in York. Lancaster, and
Lebanon Counties, praised govern
ment officials, agencies, and indi
viduals by saying, “Some people
just do a job for money, but you do
yours because you care.”
Some of the participants who
completed the program recently
told how the program has helped
changed their lives. Some have
sought shelter from abuse, some
have had their kids put into foster
care, and EFNEP has been instru
mental in helping them put their
lives back together so that they can
be a stronger parent
“I learned how to take care of my
pollination requirements for
trees and other fruits, an expla
nation of soil fertility and pH
needs, and a year-round sched
ule titled "Monthly Maintenance
for Home Fruit Gardeners."
Authored by Penn State
reseachers and faculty, the man
ual is targeted for
Pennsylvania's amateur grow
ers, with climatological and
pest-management information
specific to the state.
"Small-Scale Fruit Production"
contains valuable graphs and
charts, as well as entire chapters
devoted to pome fruits, stone
fruits, grapes, brambles and
more. The publication is available

“I learned how to make meals
when I didn’t think I had anything
to make it with,” said another.
Many of the behind the scenes
work is often unnoticed. Some of
these go to individuals who baby
sit or entertain the children while
the mother is participating in the
classes. Some provide presents.
