Welcome to 4-H in Halton County!
4-H is an organization of leaders building leaders in every county of Ontario through a wide variety of projects (clubs) that teach about life skills, home skills and agriculture.
4-H Ontario’s “Learn To Do By Doing” approach has provided 4-H youth with a place where they can be involved, accepted, valued and heard while developing valuable leadership and life skills.
The 4-H movement has its roots in rural communities but is certainly not exclusive to “farm kids”! Here in Halton, we offer many clubs that are centered around developing new hobbies and skills that are applicable to anyone.
We welcome youth from 9-21 to join our clubs. And new this year, we will be offering a Cloverbuds program for 6-8 year olds! Most events are based around the Milton, Acton and Georgetown areas.
