It has been an incredible Country Ham Project season!

Our final project meeting wrapped up this week as our 4-H'ers selected the country ham they will take to the Kentucky State Fair and gave it its final preparation for the trip.

Over the past three project sessions, these youth have learned about the tradition and science behind country hams, proper curing and aging practices, and selecting a quality ham. They've gained valuable knowledge, built confidence, and made great memories along the way!

Now it's time for the next big step! On August 20, our 4-H'ers will head to the Kentucky State Fair to present their Country Ham Speeches and showcase all of their hard work!
