Curious to learn more about 4-H in Madison County? The Madison County 4-H program is offering a virtual series with a variety of guest speakers for youth to learn more about anything from the science of chocolate and how to make maple syrup to solar energy and paleontology.
The sessions will be offered via Zoom from 2 to 4 p.m. on the second and fourth Sundays of each month, January through March. After each presentation, some 4-H clubs will host their individual meetings for those enrolled in 4-H. Those interested in learning more about 4-H can stay on to ask questions from the 4-H educator, try out a 4-H meeting, meet advisors and more. Those who are interested can register for one session or join the whole series.
Session dates and topics:
• Jan. 10–Fire Safety on the Farm;
• Jan. 24–Cooking Safety;
• Feb. 14–Paleontology;
• Feb. 28–Solar Energy Fun;
• March 14–Maple Syrup Making;
