Could kids try 4-H without having to commit to a full year? That idea became 4-H Intro Clubs, and now we’re heading into Year 4!

This fall, we have 3 clubs in Calgary and 2 in Edmonton, with hands-on activities, new experiences and a chance to seeRead more what 4-H is all about.

If your child is curious about 4-H but isn’t quite ready for a traditional club, this is a great place to start.

WHAT OUR COMMUNITY SAYS

4-H Changed My Life

4-H gave me the confidence to speak in front of crowds, lead a team, and pursue my dream of studying agriculture at university. I wouldn’t be where I am today without it.

Sarah K.

Former Member · Calgary Region

As a leader, watching youth grow from shy first-year members into confident, capable young adults is the most rewarding experience of my life. 4-H is a gift to rural Alberta.

Tom M.

Volunteer Leader · Peace Region · 12 years

We enrolled our daughter in 4-H three years ago and it’s been transformative. She’s learned responsibility, public speaking, and made lifelong friends from across the province.
