Programs

You can join different kinds of 4-H programs to participate in 4-H - you are not limited to just one! You have choices in how you want to participate and the projects you will explore. Programs are the clubs, camps, enrichment programs and events where you gain your 4-H experience.

4-H Clubs

There are different types of 4-H Clubs in California. A 4-H club is a place for you to connect with your peers and adult mentors on a regular basis for hands-on experience.

4-H Camps

4-H Camps make the best memories! 4-H day camps fill your days with projects and activities. At overnight camps, you spend time in a different environment from home. Most 4-H camps include LOTS of outdoor activities, from cooking to hiking to environmental science.

Enrichment Programs

Enrichment programs connect youth with 4-H hands-on learning experiences. You might participate in a Cooking Academy, a 4-H STEM Challenge, or other 4-H projects. Teachers, afterschool leaders and community partners can partner with 4-H. Connect with your county 4-H office to learn more.
