Welcome to Island County 4-H!
We are a youth organization with a mission of engaging youth to reach their fullest potential while advancing the field of positive youth development. It is open to all youth, ages 5 to 19.
Though typically thought of as an agriculturally focused organization as a result of its history, 4-H today focuses on citizenship, healthy living, science, engineering and technology, and animal science.
In addition to the club structure that many are familiar with, Washington State University 4-H offers activities for families that can be done outside of a commitment to a club, and resources for educators to use in their classrooms.
What do we do?
Currently, Island County 4-H has a variety of programs and projects that youth and adults can participate in.
