What is 4-H?

Georgia 4-H, a partner in public education, is youth and adults learning, growing and working together to experience and accomplish new directions. If life is a Highway, then 4-H is where you learn to drive.

In Hart County, Cloverleafs are those 4-H'ers in grades four, five, and six Juniors are those 4-H'ers in grades seven and eight and Senior 4-H'ers are those in grades nine through twelve.

4-H Motto: "To Make The Best Better"

4-H Pledge

I pledge . . .
my head to clearer thinking,
my heart to greater loyalty, my hands to larger service,
and my health to better living, for my club, my community, my country and my world!

Georgia 4-H Vision

A world in which youth and adults learn, grow and work together as catalysts for positive change.

Georgia 4-H Mission

The mission of Georgia 4-H is to assist youth in acquiring knowledge, developing life skills, and forming attitudes that will enable them to become self-directing, productive and contributing members of society. This mission is accomplished through "hands-on" learning experiences focused on agricultural and environmental issues, agricultural awareness, leadership, communication skills, food and nutrition, health, energy conservation and citizenship.
