Ochs Garden 4-H Club

Our Ochs Garden 4-H Club will be back up and running in the Fall of 2021! The club will be open to youth ages 5-18. This club is perfect for kids new to 4-H and on the younger end of the range. Any teens interested in joining would be able to earn Bright Futures Hours if they sign up to be a teen leader/volunteer.

The club will meet every other Saturday (exception of Holiday weeks) for the educational meetings led by experienced 4-H and Master Gardener volunteers and staff. Topics will include food and cooking, growing, insects, and crafts!

Additional dates are October 2, 18, & 30, November 13 & 20, and December 11. Spring dates will be posted at a later date.

Youth and families will be able to tend to their garden at other days and times when the community garden is open outside of the educational meetings.

Cost is $25 per youth to enroll in 4-H and $10 per youth for a plot fee. the enrollment fee ($25) will be paid on 4-H Online when you enroll. $10 can be paid cash, Eventbrite, check, or Paypal after choosing your plot.

Space is limited, so plan to attend the first meeting in September to guarantee your spot. Enrollment will open in mid-August and can be found here: https://v2.4honline.com/
