Collapse ▲A 4-H project is a collection of experiences based around a specific topic.
These experiences are a huge range of everything you have done in a calendar year. Your 4-H community (parents, club members, volunteers, 4-H agents, and others) will help you learn about upcoming opportunities you might be interested in. 4-H Projects are year-long individually designed educational experiences. Youth pick a topic to explore and pursue learning experiences centered on that topic, January through December.
Community Service
Categories include:
- Animal Science
- Citizenship & Civic Education
- Communication & Expressive Arts
- Family & Consumer Sciences
- Environmental Science
- Healthy Lifestyles
- Personal Development & Leadership
- Plant Science Science & Technology
Youth can pick any topic of interest from archery to horse and from gardening to rockets. This is what makes 4-H so great! 4-H then offers a variety of activities to learn more and youth are able to pursue individual experiences as well. Make sure to write it all down in your 4-H Project Record!
These activities may include:
- Hands-on Experience – Raise an animal, grow a garden, build furniture, etc.
