McCone county needs in the area of Family and Consumer Sciences most often involve basic food safety, home canning, estate planning, home gardening, plant care, and home weatherization. Many of the daily interactions address economic concerns. Successful home and family programs this year included a four-week Gardening Workshop, which instructed 46 participants on basic gardening practices, and a class that demonstrated the proper and safe use of pressure cookers for 14 participants.
