Abstract Childhood health is a strong determinant of adult health, including overweight and obesity. Rural children and adults experience a greater obesity prevalence compared to children and adults living in more urban places. The goal of Generating Rural Options for Weight-Healthy Kids & Communities (GROW HKC) is to prevent childhood obesity and promote healthy weight among children and families living in rural places. GROW HKC focuses efforts in rural communities, schools, and families. The data presented here focus on the rural family home environment.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this investigation was to examine the family home food and physical activity environment among rural families.
