Cooperative Extension: 4-H

Celebrating 100 Years in Maine!

4-H is the University of Maine Cooperative Extension youth development program for ages 5-18, featuring clubs, camps, workshops, schools and operation military kids programs.

“4-H gave me the confidence to become a leader among my peers and take the next step in my life to pursue a college degree.”
– Casey Hushon, 4-H Alum, Senior Account Executive for a leading agricultural marketing communications agency

“The strong sense of public service and volunteerism I learned through 4-H helped me give back to the community later in life.”
– Patrick Larson, 4-H Alum, Assistant Attorney General, Drug Task Force Attorney
