4-H Projects, Project Books, & Resources
4-H Projects
A 4-H project is a topic that you want to learn more about during the year. 4-H members usually sign up for one or more projects each year. You’ll have many projects to consider, from art to woodworking, from rock climbing to rabbits, from clothing to small engines. Project leaders will help you with your projects through meetings and project materials.
Most clubs have club project leaders that organize project meetings and some project areas have county wide project meetings (open to any 4-H’er, regardless of which club they belong to), and some clubs “share” project leaders.
When you sign up for a project, you are provided project literature, if available, for each project area. This literature is a resource for you to learn more about your project. Most of the literature has a set of activities you can do to help you “learn by doing.”
For more information and activities in a variety of project areas, please visit the Wisconsin 4-H Youth Development website. All 4-H members will find ideas for fair projects and other project resources at this website.
