4-H at home

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.

Whether youth have a horse in their backyard or have never once had the pleasure of holding the reins, 4-H has learning experiences that give every horse lover opportunities to grow.

4-H STEM programming, from engineering to drone racing to polymer science, offers youth of all ages the chance to explore and discover a universe of exciting opportunities.
