What is 4-H?
4-H is the oldest and largest youth development organization in America and is open to youth in grades Kindergarten through one year out of high school. Youth in 4-H develop life skills while they explore a variety of topics of interest in areas such as health, science, agriculture, and civic engagement. Morris County 4-H offers a number of program opportunities, including year-round 4-H clubs, which focus on a specific project area. These clubs are supported by caring, adult volunteers. Our county's 4-H clubs cover a wide range of interests. Check out our current 4-H club list and contact the 4-H office to learn more. Have an idea for a 4-H club? Let us know!
