4-H in the Community
Tuolumne County 4-H members hosted a 4-H information table at Jamestown Elementary School. They offered a seed bomb activity for kids and it was a huge success! A local farmer also came to provide families with free, fresh produce.

4-H Activity Tracker
Need a quick and simple way to capture your 4-H activities? Thanks to Alameda County 4-H member Harini Muthu and her Emerald Star project, there’s an app for that! The free app was created to aid 4-H members with the completion of the PDR section of the Record Book. It helps them keep track of the activities they participate in as well as all the relevant information for the activities.
