    I’m honored and love working on the EFNEP Team through the University of Florida, IFAS Extension, in Escambia County! Extension is a great group of people who work hard to deliver the most up to date, researched education in various subject areas, to the public. The walking challenge is a great way for us stay healthy so we can continue our work and service to the community.
