The program offers a variety of educational programs and activities, including Horse Project, Entrepreneurship Project, Dog Project, Cooking Project (ages 8-19 years), and the Cloverbud Project (ages 5-7 years).

What does 4-H stand for?
The green four-leaf clover with a white 'H' on each leaf was officially adopted as the 4-H emblem in 1911, and patented in 1924. The 4-H emblem symbolizes the interactive nature of effective learning and development.
The four H's are: HEAD - Problem solving: ability to sort out complex problems. HEART - Emotional development: developing good attitudes toward work and learning; developing acceptance and appreciation of other people. HANDS - Skills development: ability to do, skill in doing and habit of doing. HEALTH - Physical development: understanding and appreciating physical growth and change The 4-H Name and Emblem are protected
