Youth enjoyed 4-H Summer Workshops

This summer several youth participated in the fun workshops.
The theme for this year was "Back to Basics"

Quilting was out first activity. With the help from the local Quilting Guild youth received one on one instruction. Youth learned how to select fabric, sew squares and put the layers together. Each participant left with a completed wall hanging. One youth even won best of show at the county fair with her first quilt.



Canning was another workshop offering. Youth learn the process of hot water bath canning by making jam, pickles and salsa. They each took home what they made.




We offered two workshops for cloverbuds. Youth ages 5 - 8 gathered for some fun with arts and crafts. They also learned to make a snack from scratch.
A good time was had be all!
