ISU Extension to Families is excited to announce a new resource available to help people save money and eat healthy - Spend Smart Eat Smart.
The new Spend Smart Eat Smart interactive Web site went live today and is found at www.extension.iastate.edu/foodsavings. The site features dollar-saving tips, interactive activities, recipe videos, and blogs hosted by ISU Extension nutrition specialists. Visitors to the site will be able to figure their family’s cost of food at home, test their smart shopping skills, and compare meals prepared at home versus eating out.
In addition to the web site itself, a variety of resources are being developed for staff use to assist you with promoting the new Spend Smart Eat Smart program to your clients. Resources posted include a PowerPoint presentation, a display, six publications, and various communications pieces. These resources may be found at /homefamily/forstaff/nutritionandhealth/sses.htm
Be sure to check this site often as several additional resources are still in development and will be posted soon.
If you have any questions about the new Spend Smart Eat Smart program, please contact your Nutrition and Health Field Specialist.
