PIKE COUNTY, Ohio — The Workforce & Business Development Program (W&B) at the Community Action Committee of Pike County (CAC) will be hosting a “Meals on a Budget” Workshop that offers in-depth information on how to create a household grocery budget and develop meal plans to make the most of your food budget. During this no-cost workshop, attendees will receive tools, tips, and information on creating their own meal budget. In addition, the instructors will prepare a complementary low-cost dish for attendees to sample. The workshop will be held on Thursday, October 20th, at the OhioMeansJobs Career Center at 941 Market Street in Piketon from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
“This workshop is an excellent opportunity to learn how to get the most out of your grocery budget,“ stated Erica Jones, co-instructor. “With today’s inflation, we understand how challenging it can be to prepare meals on smaller budgets, and this workshop will provide people with the knowledge of how to do that effectively.”
The workshop is made possible through the Financial Literacy Program which is a partnership between State Farm and the W&B. The focus of the Financial Literacy Program is to provide financial education services and Free Income Tax Preparation to the community.
Registration is required to attend this event, and seats are limited. Please contact Kate Van Meter at (740) 289-2371 at extension 7013, or via email: [email protected].
