Clubs
In 4‑H programs, kids and teens complete hands-on projects in areas like health, science, agriculture and civic engagement in a positive environment where they receive guidance from adult mentors and are encouraged to take on proactive leadership roles. Kids experience 4‑H in every county and parish in the country.
School Enrichment
School Enrichment is a partnership between the UF/IFAS Extension service and a school district to provide educational content in various subject areas. Extension values its relationship with schools and welcomes the opportunity to provide research-based curricula for classroom use.

Workshops and Camps
The best gift we can give our kids is to empower them with skills that will last for a lifetime, which is why parents have been sending their kids to 4-H summer camps for decades. 4-H was founded on the belief that when kids are empowered to pursue their passions and chart their own courses, their skills grow and take shape.
County Events
County Events is an annual opportunity for youth to build confidence in presentation skills and reinforce knowledge by teaching others. Participants can choose from various presentation formats, such as Tabletop Displays, Demonstrations, and Public Speaking. Participation is required to qualify for market Animal projects at the Fair.
Volunteers
4-H is a Youth Development Organization that belongs to the members, their families and dedicated adults who serve as volunteer leaders. Volunteers dedicate time to the youth to help them learn and navigate the 4-H projects and curriculum. Volunteers are the heart of 4-H.
