Learning by doing

The 4-H Youth Development Program helps young people grow to become productive citizens. We offer 4-H clubs and projects, school enrichment materials, and summer camp.

Lane County 4-H youth programs build leadership skills, communication skills, and citizenship skills!

Get involved
Youth in grades 4 through 12 can join 4-H. We also have a program for youth in kindergarten to grade 3 (4-H Adventures). Visit How to Join for more details, and call 541-682-4243. We'll be happy to connect you with 4-H clubs that have same project interests as your child.

4-H needs adult volunteers
Adult volunteers lead 4-H projects and programs. Make a difference in the lives of youth in Lane County. For more information about becoming a 4-H volunteer, visit Volunteer.
