OakTown 4-H

4-H is the nation’s largest youth development and empowerment organization with over 90,000 clubs nationwide. The name represents the four personal development areas of:

• Head — Managing, Thinking
• Heart — Relating, Caring
• Hands — Giving, Working
• Health — Being, Living

Though historically an agriculturally focused organization, 4-H’ers today engage in hands-on learning in the areas of citizenship, healthy living, food security, science, engineering, technology, and more. 4-H continues to develop new projects for its members to study beyond agriculture and animal husbandry, including photography, environmental-stewardship, cooking, urban gardening, and beekeeping.
