What Is National 4-H Week?
Every October, communities across the country celebrate National 4-H Week—a time to recognize the positive impact of 4-H youth and the dedicated volunteers who support them. 4-H is the nation’s largest youth development organization, empowering young people with hands-on learning experiences in agriculture, science, leadership, and citizenship.
The iconic 4-H pledge—“Head, Heart, Hands, and Health”—reflects the program’s commitment to developing well-rounded individuals who are prepared to make a difference in their communities. Whether it’s raising livestock, exploring STEM projects, or volunteering locally, 4-H members learn by doing.
As a company rooted in serving the farm, ranch, and pet industries, we see firsthand how 4-H helps shape the future of agriculture and rural life. National 4-H Week is a chance to celebrate these young leaders and the mentors who guide them.
