Who can join 4-H?
Anyone from 9 to 19 can join 4-H. Hardin County has younger children involved in Clover Bud activities.

When 4-H began a hundred years ago, almost everyone lived on a farm. That’s not true anymore.

4-H happens wherever kids live in large cities, small towns, in rural areas, on farms, and on military bases like Fort Knox!

The 4-H Pledge”I pledge
my HEAD to clearer thinking,
my HEART to greater loyalty,
my HANDS to larger service,
and my HEALTH to better living,
for my club, my community,
my country and my world.”

The 4-H Colors – Green & White
White symbolizes purity & high ideals.
Green is nature’s more abundant color and is emblematic of springtime, life, youth and growth.

4-H Motto
“To Make The Best Better”
