It’s National 4-H Week, and we’re kicking things off by going GREEN! 🍀💚

Today, 4-H youth, volunteers, alumni, families and supporters across New Hampshire are showing their 4-H spirit as we celebrate this year’s theme, Beyond Ready.

Tonight, the Memorial Bridge in Portsmouth and the Bandstand in Londonderry will be lit green in celebration of 4-H.

Wear green, share your 4-H pride and help us celebrate the young people building skills, confidence and connections through New Hampshire 4-H (NH 4-H Program).
