In 4‑H, we believe in the power of young people. We see that every child has valuable strengths and real influence to improve the world around us. We are America’s largest youth development organization—empowering nearly six million young people across the U.S. with the skills to lead for a lifetime.
4‑H is delivered by Cooperative Extension—a community of more than 100 public universities across the nation that provides experiences where young people learn by doing. Kids complete hands-on projects in areas like health, science, agriculture and citizenship, in a positive environment where they receive guidance from adult mentors and are encouraged to take on proactive leadership roles.
The Swine curriculum explores raising and caring for pigs, fitting and showing, and career opportunities related to swine. With in the club, memebers will learn to make budgeting decisions, dietary needs of pigs, pre-show preparation, showmanship and judging skills, and ethical decision-making in caring for and showing swine.
NOTE: Our St. Lucie County 4-H Website is under construction as it is a part of the Cooperative Extension of Univeristy of Florida. I have also included our local facebook page as well until our main page is complete. https://www.facebook.com/SLC4H
