What are 4-H Clubs?

A group of youth and adults working and learning
together through projects and community service! Clubs often meet monthly with additional opportunities to join project meetings, workshops, camps, or learn at home. Club members participate in hands-on experiences learning about, making, or raising the project they're passionate about.

4-H is open to youth ages 5 to 18. More kids belong to 4-H than to any other youth group! In fact, it’s the biggest youth group in the nation with almost 7 million members!

Share a passion or skill with youth. Support youth in leadership, building community, and life skills. Share just a few hours or make a monthly commitment to help local youth.
