Youth in grades 7 and up are invited to join us for the 2026 4-H Ag Ed Leader Exchange, Nov. 13–14 on the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus in St. Paul!
This fun, hands-on event is designed for youth who are interested in agriculture and want to grow their leadership skills and learn how to be an advocate for agriculture.
Participants will explore different areas of agriculture, connect with other youth from across Minnesota, hear from agriculture professionals and discover ways they can share the story of agriculture with others.
Explore campus, connect with the University of Minnesota Ag Education Department, and discover careers connected to CFANS!
Throughout the weekend, youth will have opportunities to learn about agriculture, develop communication and leadership skills, explore the University of Minnesota campus and practice advocating for an industry they care about.
Whether you already have a passion for agriculture or simply want to learn more, there’s a place for you at Ag Ed Leader Exchange!
