Cloverbuds participate in fun, hands-on learning activities with other youth their age.  They are able to exhibit what they have done in a booth at the fair, and they will receive a certificate of completion at the end of each year. Cloverbuds are not eligible for competitive events, county awards, or 4-H camp. Cloverbuds are eligible to participate in special countywide Cloverbud activities.

What are Cloverbuds?

Cloverbuds are children who explore areas of healthy living, earth environment, citizenship, plants and animals, consumer skills, science and technology, personality development, and expressive arts.

The primary goal of the 4-H Cloverbud program is to promote children's healthy development - mentally, physically, socially and emotionally.

The 4-H Cloverbud program provides an excellent opportunity for your child to reach his or her highest potential because early life experiences, even subtle ones, affect future development.

The 4-H Cloverbud program allows for and encourages creativity and play.
