New, Garden-based 4-H Science Clubs

June 30th, 2009

Linda Naeve and I just had to share these success stories (PDF) about how three new 4-H clubs were started that connected youth and caring adults with common interests in gardening.

Note how the Story, Dickinson, and Worth County clubs were started by Master Gardeners, a CYC, and a sixth grader that connected with their local 4-H office and got things rolling. Story and Dickinson are using 4-H Growing in the Garden lessons and activities to plan fun, educational sessions.

We are discovering other gardening groups that have not transitioned into clubs. Why not? It only takes a seed!
