It’s National 4-H Week!

Each year, 4-H programs across the country take a week to celebrate the impact of 4-H, from youth discovering their sparks, building confidence, and gaining skills to make them Beyond Ready for their futures.

This is our chance to show off everything that makes Vermont 4‑H so special, and we want YOU to be part of it! This year's theme, Beyond Ready, highlights how 4‑H youth are stepping up as leaders, problem-solvers, and changemakers. Let’s show the rest of the country what Vermont 4‑H is made of!

Join us this week as we celebrate all things Vermont 4-H!
