National 4-H Week
October 5-11 is National 4-H Week. With 4-H’s connection to environmental efforts, youth participating in environmental science, and 4-H’s green brand logo, “Keeping it Green” shows how 4-H is bridging old ideas with new to teach youth environmental stewardship and connecting youth to science-related issues. Six million 4-H members and over 500,000 4-H volunteers will celebrate their 4-H involvement with various activities across the country.
