We’re excited to share that we have two Bexar County 4-H teams competing in the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo Landscape Challenge this year!

Our 4-H members have been working hard to strengthen their plant knowledge, design skills, and teamwork in preparation for this competition. The Landscape Challenge gives youth the opportunity to apply real-world horticulture and landscaping concepts in a hands-on setting while representing our county.

We are so proud of their dedication and wish both teams the best of luck as they compete!
