Benton & Franklin Counties WSU SNAP Ed Program

About Us

Benton and Franklin County WSU SNAP-Ed is a project in both rural and urban areas in southeast Washington. We’ve offered programming for the past ten plus years. For the past few years, we have focused on adult food access in local food banks and teaching youth in schools. Currently, we are working with youth and their families at the Farmers Markets, school aged youth at the Prosser Boys & Girls Club, and with Prosser School District.

Washington State University Extension.
