Sullivan County Extension Homemakers are working hard today making lots of homemade noodles to be served at the Fair!!!

06/01/2026

Who’s ready for the Sullivan County Extension Homemakers home cooked meals at the Sullivan County 4-H Fair?! The Extension Homemakers council met this afternoon to make their shopping list and set their noodle making and corn shucking days in preparation for the fair!
They choose to use local eggs for their meals, potato salad and all other foods they prepare.
🥚 🐓 If you have chickens and have extra eggs you’d like to donate or provide at a discount between now and June 17, please drop them off at the Extension office M-F between 8am and 4pm. They would greatly appreciate it!
🍀 Sullivan County 4-H Fair is July 11-18, 2026.
