St. Francis County
Family and Consumer Science

Families are important to the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service.  Here you will find many educational opportunities dedicated to Diet, Health, and Nutrition; Children, Youth, and Families; Individual and Family Resource Management; and Volunteer and Leadership Development (these are our 4 focus areas). 

Focus areas are targeted programs directed toward the specific educational needs of Arkansans, identified through research or surveys in the areas of agriculture, families, youth and communities.  Please feel free to give us a call and learn more about our programs, such as how to get the most for your money, eat well and stay healthy, raise caring and responsible children, and how to have strong families and safe communities

Extension Homemakers Clubs are a valuable asset to St. Francis County.  EHC members are very busy in the community, whether it’s helping with 4-H activities, making walker caddies for nursing home residents, making throws and caps for cancer patients at AR Children’s Hospital or St. Jude’s, participating and assisting in the county fair, and lots of other activities.

Extension Homemakers Club Meeting Schedule:

Pine Tree – 2nd Tuesday of the month, 2:00 p.m.

Homemaker’s Exchange – 2nd Thursday of the month, 2:00 p.m.

Goodwin – 3rd Thursday of the month, 5:30 p.m.
