Fostering Healthy Eating, Active Living
A strong community is dependent on strong, healthy families.
The WSU Skagit County Family and Consumer Science education programs focus on health throughout the life-cycle:

- Food Safety and Food Preservation: Preserve the harvest safely and reduce food waste.
- Growing Your Groceries: Backyard Gardening
- Early Learning Nutrition Education
- Diabetes Prevention Program
- Aging Mastery
Our programs support individuals and communities to make healthy choices and be more physically active.
Evidence-based educational opportunities and resources help families stay healthy by making the healthy choice the easy and preferred choice.
