What a busy month and weekend! We had members complete the countywide ceramics project, fiber Fusion, and beginning flower arrangement. We also help work a bake sale for the church we hold our meetings at. So much learning happening!

This is awesome that ARBA is helping with this! These are a quick read and any intermediate/senior showmanship could see questions pulled from publication like this.

Thanks to our partnership with the American Rabbit Breeders Association, we’re able to share select breed-specific articles from Domestic Rabbits magazine, helping bring valuable knowledge about rare and heritage rabbits to a wider audience. Learn more about Beveren rabbits (available until April 30) here:

Since 2010, Tractor Supply has partnered with 4‑H to prepare youth to be ready for work and life. The success of the Paper Clover campaign has raised more than $24 million to impact local youth with the technical skills and life skills that prepare them for whatever comes their way. 90 percent of donations directly support 4‑H youth in the state where the funds were raised, and the remaining 10 percent supports the overall mission and growth of 4‑H nationally.

The 2026 Paper Clover campaign begins April 17 and runs through May 3.
