When you think 4-H, don't just think farm animals, livestock and county fairs - your child can build a robot, learn public speaking or dive into digital arts!
In this episode of Sustainable Steps, Tami and Jake return to the ISU Extension and Outreach office in Woodbury County to talk with Youth Outreach Coordinator Christine Craig, debunking the rural stereotypes and exploring how 4-H can shape the next generation of community leaders.
In this episode, we'll learn:
- Beyond the Barn: Why modern 4-H is just as much about STEM, robotics, photography and healthy living as it is about agriculture.
- The Power of Hands-On Learning: How short, six-week "specialty blocks" and after-school clubs keep kids engaged and constantly curious.
