Today is the DAY! Follow this link to order your Green Box! ☺️ https://frontdoorproduce.com/products/georgia-4-h-produce-box-fundraiser-jenkins-county

🥬🍊 Fresh Georgia-grown produce + supporting Jenkins County 4-H = a win-win! 🍅🌽

Beginning Monday, September 14, you’ll be able to order a 20-pound box of fresh, Georgia-grown produce for $35.

You have TWO ways to participate:
🥕 Order a box for your family and enjoy fresh Georgia-grown produce at home.
💚 Donate a box and Jenkins County 4-H will make sure it is distributed to a local family in need or provided to a local food bank for distribution.

For every $35 box purchased through Jenkins County 4-H, $9 comes directly back to our local 4-H program. Those funds will be used right here in Jenkins County to support youth development opportunities such as 4-H Project Achievement, educational programs, event supplies, and other hands-on experiences for our 4-H’ers.

So when you purchase a box, you’re not only getting fresh Georgia produce — you’re also investing in opportunities for local youth. And if you choose to donate your box, your purchase can make an impact in even more ways.

📅 Online ordering opens Monday, September 14! Check back here for the link to order! ☺️
📦 Produce distribution will take place the week of November 16. Just in time for Thanksgiving prep!

Thank you for supporting Jenkins County 4-H and helping us continue creating meaningful opportunities for young people in our community. 🍀

We’re kicking off our 2026–2027 4-H Community Service Initiatives with a School Uniform Share during August & September!

We are collecting new and gently used JCSS-approved school uniforms to help make sure students in our community have what they need for a successful school year. If your children have outgrown uniforms that are still in good condition, we would LOVE to give them a new home!

👕 Polo shirts
👖 Uniform pants
🩳 Uniform shorts
👗 Uniform skirts/skorts
…and other JCSS-approved uniform pieces!

📍 Drop-off locations:
Jenkins County 4-H Office
434 Barney Avenue

OR

Mrs. Smith’s 7th Grade Science Classroom

4-H’ers — don’t forget! Donations count toward your club’s community service participation and Club of the Year points! Be sure your donation is credited to your class when you turn it in!

This is such a simple way to clean out those closets AND help another student in our community.

Let’s see how many Jenkins County students we can help! 🍀
