Colorado 4-H

Last year we purchased a pet for our family. We knew a dog or cat wasn't for us, so we went a different route. Our pet is cuddly and soft. She's quiet and confined. She is low cost and low maintenance. But maybe best of all, she is the kind of pet that can be taken to the County Fair. Buttercup is her name and she is a Mini-Rex rabbit with a broken castor coat. We absolutely love her!

We have friends that are already involved in the 4-H of Colorado. The rewards for not only children but their entire family is invaluable.

4-H Mission

4-H empowers youth to reach their full potential, working and learning in partnership with caring adults.

4-H Vision

A world in which youth and adults learn, grow and work together as catalysts for positive change.

What is perhaps most impressive about the 4-H program is that there are so many options for getting involved. You can learn more here. However, be warned, the website does not make it easy to navigate the actual enrollment process. You will need to contact the Extension Office or find someone you know to get plugged in. If you are someone already involved in 4-H in Colorado, maybe you could give us some tips to get started and what you enjoy most!
