Welcome to our Lee County 4-H Program
4-H is a fun and educational program where participants “Learn by Doing.” Young people complete hands-on projects in agriculture, health, science, horticulture, and citizenship. Youth involvement in 4-H has proven to increase leadership skills, community care, and provide needed life skills over the years. Activities and programs will vary depending on age and ability level and are designed for boys and girls anywhere from age 5 up to 19 years old.
4-H is open to all youth regardless of race, color, creed, national origin, sex, or disabilities.
We encourage family involvement in 4-H. It’s not just a youth organization; it’s a family organization, providing children and parents with projects and activities designed to help them learn and grow TOGETHER.
One other great thing about 4-H, it is FREE!
Lee County offers a variety of programs in which youth may participate throughout the year. We would love for you to join us!
