From time to time those of us at the 4-H office get bits and pieces of information that might interest everyone so we like to share them via e-mail or the blog. Today I was fortunate enough to attend a training on line that involved horticulture resources and thought many of you might be interested. The training was lead by Liz Driscoll who is our Horticulture/4-H person and she introduced us to a web site that she created that I thought you would find interesting.http://www.growforit.org/ is a great site to find resources, learn about upcoming competitions and be able to download curriculum that can be used for all ages in your clubs. Although we do have a Junior Master Gardener Club these are items that might just be a topic for one meeting for your club to offer a little something different and fun.
The other thing we talked about was the state 4-H horticulture contest that will be held in Raleigh May 3. We have had some interest among our older 4-H members and I am told that we can field multiple teams so if you have club members interested in participating please let our office know by April 1 via e-mail or a quick phone call.
