4-H Programs and Projects

4-H is more than Cows and Corn!

When most people think about 4-H, they remember the long standing history 4-H has had with educating youth in Animal and Plant Sciences.  Most people don’t realize that 4-H has evolved into a diverse youth development program that offers a wide variety of subjects.  In addition to the fun projects currently offered in Island County 4-H, Washington State 4-H supports over 120 areas of interest.  Check them out below!
