Aroostook County New Sweden Extension Homemakers


Per guidance from UMS, the State, and Maine CDC, public gatherings of Extension Homemakers has been discontinued at this time, due to increased risk of infection from Covid 19.  As risks decrease, Extension Homemaker Clubs in Aroostook County, and elsewhere in the State of Maine, may resume meetings. The safety and well-being of our volunteers is very important to us, and we regret that the Aroostook County Extension Homemakers are unable to meet at this time.


The New Sweden Extension Homemakers is one of 5 local community groups that comprise Aroostook County Extension Homemakers. We have 27 members (6 honorary), which meet on the third Tuesday of the month at 1:00 pm.*
