New Online Education from North Dakota State University Extension

North Dakota State University Extension has just launched two new online courses that are FREE!

  1. Food Preservation 101 – this was developed with a USDA grant and the goal was to create education for the indigenous population. But it is certainly useful for anyone. Course topics include drying, fermenting, water bath canning, pressure canning and freezing. Register and enroll by November 15, 2024. Must be completed by January 15, 2025.
  2. Nourish – this is an online, self-paced course for adults of any age (especially over age 50 and in rural communities). Register and enroll by November 15, 2024 and the course runs in a 3-month cycle. Topics include: the immune system, muscles, pets and your health, cooking, reliable resources, well-being and medications.
