| Impact Report | 2007 New Mexico Agricultural Small Farm Conference and Trade Show Moriarty, New Mexico. This year a Nutrition Component was offered at the conference which took place on November 2-4 2008. “Holiday Gifts and Treats from the Kitchen” Jams and Jellies, was presented by Cindy Davies and I (Elena Bowers). The presentation required audience participation and several jams and jellies were prepared and processed during the 1 hour workshop. Some of the recipes that we used were from the 4-H food preservation project and others came from the Food Preservation workshop offered to us by Dr. Nancy Flores Extension Food Technology Specialist earlier this year. We shared jam and jelly recipes, food safety information, and each of the participants were able to take a jar of jam or jelly home with them after the presentation. The recipes were very easy to prepare from start to finish and this was a plus, because the women of today do not spend much time in the kitchen due to other duties. About 12 women attended and they requested more Home Economics workshops at next year’s conference. |
