In-Person Flourishing Farmers 4-H Information and Enrollment Session

Join us on June 12th for a Flourishing Farmers

information and enrollment session!

ABOUT THE PROGRAM: The Flourishing Farmers is an individualized and adaptive 4-H program designed for youth with special needs. Each youth enrolled in the on-going program will be paired with adult and youth mentors who will assist them in acquiring new skills. This program uses a positive youth development approach and hands-on experiences to turn their fun projects into usable life-skills. Our 4-H youth learn by doing!

OUR GOAL: To help our 4-Hers grow through the development of citizenship, leadership, responsibility, and life skills.
