Food $ense in Walla Walla County

Washington state consistently ranks in the nation's top ten in hunger rates and Walla Walla is no stranger to hungry families. Additionally, the rise in adult and childhood obesity rates nationwide indicates the need for educating families about wise nutritional choices.

The WSU Food $ense Nutrition Education program helps these families learn nutrition basics and smart buying strategies to help them sustain their food supply throughout each month and to introduce important nutritional concepts for better health.
