News Center reports on new 4-H program to help foster new generation of agriculture workers
News Center Maine reported on a new program from University of Maine Cooperative Extension 4-H that aims to help foster the next generation of farmers and agriculture workers, particularly as the industry faces an aging workforce at a time when the number of formal agricultural programs for high school students is shrinking. Maine 4-H Agricultural Leadership Ambassador Program offers educational experiences for youth ages 14–18 to explore their interest in agriculture. Learn more about the program online.
