4-H at home

Minnesota 4-H youth excitedly prepare their projects for summer fairs during the tail end of the pandemic.

“I pledge my hands to larger service..” is not just the 4-H pledge but a practice Minnesota 4-H youth integrate with their daily lives. Thanks to special funding from Compeer Financial, youth across the state partnered with local food shelves and nutrition organizations to support neighbors in need.

4-H is building animal knowledge in the youngest of Minnesotans.

A different approach to healthy living education means fun and learning for youth and their families in Northwest Minnesota.

A weekly online meet-up for children has encouraged healthy living at home for the whole family.

Although COVID-19 changed how we socialize with others, 4-H maintained steady opportunities for families to learn, make connections and find joy in their communities. 3,520 youth engaged in 4-H programs across Northeast Minnesota last year.

Physical activity, especially outside, is a key factor in youth health and wellbeing. Minnesota 4-H offers youth of all ages a variety of opportunities to explore and develop healthy living practices outdoors.

Youth of all ages can benefit from experiences that build healthy living practices. 4-H programs offer a variety of options for youth to be mindful with their food, feelings and relationships.

4-H youth pledge to keep fellow Minnesotans warm this winter.

A group of youth from southern Minnesota took on the challenge of advocating for the pollinators of Minnesota.
