4-H FORMS & PROJECT INFORMATION
What are 4-H Projects?
Each member signs up for one or more projects, or
educational areas. A project is the topic the member wants
to learn about during the 4-H year. In addition to club
meetings, members can attend small group meetings with project
leaders help specifically for those projects. Through project
work, 4-H members learn responsibility and new skills in their
projects.
Popular projects in Iowa County include dairy, photography,
woodworking, foods and nutrition, clothing, naturespace, and drawing
and painting.
