Enrollment Time:

It is time to join the fun of 4-H in Ontario County. New members are always welcome.

4-H members get together to learn about projects in lots of areas. Some members learn about animals while others explore food and nutrition, clothing construction, heritage crafts, gardening or woodworking to name a few. Many 4-H members do projects in more than one project area.

The youngest members of 4-H are called Cloverbuds. These members, age 5-8, participate in club activities and are discovering 4-H during this time. Traditional 4-H Club members are 8-19. 4-H clubs are a wonderful opportunity for youth to learn to work together learning life skills. 4-H is known for their Public Presentation program that helps members develop speaking skills by presenting to small groups. Other programs that highlight 4-H in the county are Harvest Food Fest, 4-H Expo, community service and the Ontario County Fair.
