Tennessee 4-H Foundation, Inc.

Tennessee 4-H Foundation, Inc. Then Tennessee 4-H Club Foundation, Inc. better known as the Tennessee 4-H Foundation was created in 1953 as a mechanism to support State 4-H Congress.

The Tennessee 4-H Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization committed to creating and sustaining positive youth development opportunities for 4-H members in Tennessee. Since then the mission of the 4-H Foundation has grown dramatically to support all aspects of the Tennessee 4-H Program.

Big congratulations to Tennessee 4-H member John Hancock of Lebanon on being selected as a 2026 Haslam Leadership Scholar at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville! ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿงก

From the poultry barn to the band room to the state council table, John has never been one to sit on the sidelines. As the current Tennessee 4-H state council secretary, he has used his passion for agriculture, leadership, and service to make a difference in his community, including donating more than 500 dozen eggs through his own agribusiness and volunteering countless hours to help others.

This prestigious honor recognizes students who lead with purpose and are committed to creating positive change. We can't think of a better fit.

Join us in celebrating John and wishing him all the best as he heads to Rocky Top to continue making an impact.

For 30 years, the Ag Tag has helped support Tennessee 4-H youth through leadership, citizenship and educational opportunities across the state. Vote for your favorite Ag Tag design and celebrate a program that continues to invest in the next generation of leaders

The Ag Tag specialty license plate is turning 30, and the Tennessee Department of Agriculture needs your help choosing its next design.

For three decades, the Ag Tag has celebrated Tennessee agriculture and forestry while supporting agricultural education, youth leadership, market development, forestry awareness and programs that strengthen rural communities across the state.

As we look toward the next 30 years, this milestone is an opportunity to celebrate the Ag Tagโ€™s impact, bring renewed attention to its purpose and invite the public to help choose its next design.

From June 9 through June 23 at 4 p.m. CT, vote for your favorite design: the original Ag Tag, a modernized version of the current Ag Tag or a new design. The two new options feature the Pick Tennessee Products logo, which is celebrating 40 years of connecting consumers with Tennessee farms and food businesses, as well as the 4-H and FFA emblems, recognizing the Ag Tagโ€™s longstanding support of agricultural education and youth leadership.
