Boulder County 4-H Lease an Animal

Mission Statement

This site is intended for use by members of the Boulder County Lease-an- Animal project. 4-H educational experiences for youth are provided by volunteers who serve as a part of the 4-H program in their community. Volunteers who give leadership to the local 4-H program consist of youth, parents and other interested adults in the community.

4-H differs from other youth programs in that it is an integral part of our nation’s education system (through the land-grant universities in each state). It is a co-educational program available to young people aged 5 to 18 regardless of race, creed, religion, color, national origin or mental or physical abilities.

The Lease-an-Animal project allows 4H members to lease an animal from a participating farm, which allows the member to take a livestock project.
