Dec 13 Richmond County 4-H Gardening Club Our Mission Statement: The purpose of youth gardening is to introduce gardening, conservation, protection of wildlife, recognition of plants, trees, and shrubs, basic flowering, and a love and appreciation of nature. The goal is that they will be future citizens who will be responsible and capable with greater self-expression, dignity, integrity, and knowledge of their environment. We are dedicated to growing minds in a stimulating, secure, and privileged environment through our high-quality, early-learning enrichment classes prior to planting any seeds. Richmond County 4-H Gardening Club is open to 4th-12th grade students who are interested in learning more about gardening and pollinators.
