FAMILY & COMMUNITY RESOURCES
Our Family & Consumer Science educators help with family health, food safety and cooking, pest control, energy management and so much more! At the Open House we'll make bike-powered smoothies, dare you to eat chocolate covered bugs, and show how to identify — and eliminate — common pests in the home at our Insect Zoo. There's a lot to learn and do, come out and join us!
4-H CLUBS & YOUTH LEADERSHIP
We have 12 different 4-H clubs that give youth ages 5-17 an opportunity to learn by doing with clubs that focus on raising livestock, crafts, leadership, sports...and so much more! We will host a fundraiser where you can get BBQ lunch for just $10, have your face painted, make popsicles, create origami flowers, practice archery and weave through an obstacle course. Come join us!
LAWNS, GARDENS & LANDSCAPES
Our Lawns, Gardens & Landscape educators can show you how to care for your yard, grow your garden, manage water resources, enhance your landscape...and so much more! We'll do a seed starting demonstration, host a plant sale, make necklaces from seeds, and discover the Spider Safety Zone. There's a lot to learn and do!
LIVESTOCK & PASTURES
Our Agriculture educators can show you how to care for your livestock, manage your pastures and forage...and so much more! We'll have a live animal interaction area with sheep, goats, chickens and cows, play cow patty bingo, make our own butter, and learn about beekeeping with a demo. Come join us!
SMALL FARMS AND CROPS
Our Small Farms and Crops educators help farmers and ranchers make the most of their land to be efficient and maximize revenue. We'll show you how to create a worm farm that's great for compost, demonstrate how peanuts grow, and learn how to get accurate soil samples. There's a lot to learn!
