REGION — The University of Maine Cooperative Extension will hold a nine-session virtual nutrition class for young adults aged 19-25 and adults with young children. The course, titled ‘Eating Smart, Being Active,’ will begin on Jan. 3 and run through the end of February.

The course aims to provide participants with the knowledge and skills to make healthy food choices. Each session will cover a different topic related to nutrition, like food budgeting, meal planning, food safety, and cooking tips, and include interactive activities, discussions, and resources. Participants will also receive free cooking tools and a cookbook after completing all nine sessions.

Participants can choose between two time slots. Classes will meet Wednesdays, either from 9-10 a.m. or noon-1 p.m., on Jan. 10, 17, 24 and 31, and Feb. 7, 14, 21 and 28.

Class size is limited and registration is required. For more information, to register, or to request reasonable accommodation, contact Vanessa Young at 207.255.3345 or vanessa.young@maine.edu.
