Looking for a fun afterschool activity for your kindergartener, 1st grader, or 2nd grader?

Cloverbuds is a monthly, hands-on 4-H program designed just for our youngest members! Each session gives kids a chance to try something new, get creative, make friends, and discover what they enjoy in a fun and welcoming environment.

Cloverbuds meets monthly throughout the school year with sessions in Pipestone and Edgerton.

Pipestone: Second Monday or Tuesday of each month
Edgerton: Second Thursday of each month

Cloverbuds is a great way to introduce your child to 4-H and let them explore a variety of activities before choosing their own project interests.

🍀 Keep the 4-H spirit going! 🍀

National 4-H Week may be one week, but the 4-H spirit lasts all year long!

It’s in the friendships we make, the skills we learn, the challenges we take on, the projects we work on and the communities we are part of.

What does the 4-H spirit mean to you?

Share a photo in the comments that shows your 4-H spirit — whether it’s a favorite project, a club meeting, a fair memory, a camp adventure or just a favorite 4-H moment!

Let’s fill the comments with 4-H memories! 💚

🍀 4-H is something to be proud of! 🍀

We’re proud of the youth who try something new, stick with a challenging project, help a friend, step into a leadership role and share what they’ve learned with others.

We’re proud of our volunteers, families and communities who help make these opportunities possible.

And we’re proud to be part of Pipestone County 4-H!

What is something you’re proud of from your 4-H experience? Share it in the comments — or share a picture that represents your 4-H pride!
