Entries for the 2026 Harvest Days 4-H Poultry Project are now open and close at 5pm on Saturday, May 16th, 2026 and Chicks should be available for pick-up after 2pm on Monday, May 18th!

The project will end with our show on Saturday, October 17th during our annual Harvest Days Festival at the 4-H Rural Life Center.

This year you may chose 2 brown egg laying pullets, hopefully Silver Laced Wyandottes, and/or 2 UNSEXED Bantam chicks - bantams are too small to s*x early in life. You have the option of two chicks of the same breed for $15, or 2 chicks of BOTH breeds (4 total) for $25, payable at chick pick-up. You will received a small bag of starter feed with your chicks, but will need to provide your own waterer, feeder, heat lamp, and brooding box.

Register today to be a part of the fun!

Join in the fun! Register by noon Saturday, May 16th at 5pm. Chicks will be ready for pick-up after 2pm on Monday, May 18th at the Extension office.

Calling All 4-H Youth — Get Ready to Shine! 🌟

4-H County Activity Day is coming up on May 7th! All 4-H’ers who have participated in a 4-H project, competition, or are part of a 4-H club are strongly encouraged to take part in 4-H Presentations. Presentations are an important tradition in North Carolina 4-H and one of the best ways youth build confidence, communication, and leadership skills.

Through presentations, youth research a topic connected to their projects or interests and teach others what they have learned. Rather than simply giving a speech, they practice organizing ideas, explaining concepts clearly, and answering questions from an audience. These experiences help youth grow as public speakers while also strengthening problem-solving, preparation, and self-confidence.

Time slots are filling up fast, so be sure to register using the Google Form link below!🎤🍀
