4-H Projects

Why do we do 4-H Projects?

4-H projects provide the opportunity to learn skills in everything from Agriculture to Arts & Communication to Shooting Sports, STEM, and Community Service. Select a project you are interested in and would like to learn about. Don’t be afraid to pick projects you don’t know much about, because the whole point of participating in a 4-H project is to learn about it! You can participate in 4-H projects at the countywide level, or club level, or individually/within your family. While working on your projects, you are encouraged to keep detailed records that can be submitted for awards.
