⭐️ We are so grateful for all the amazing Meigs County 4-H volunteers. We cannot have a successful program without your involvement and support. ⭐️

🍀 We’ve enjoyed National 4-H Week!
However, our 4-H Agents Mrs. Kyra & Mrs. Andie missed all the students during Fall Break and can’t wait to be back in club meetings next week.

They look forward to seeing the photos 4-Hers bring for the photo contests at Meigs North & South.

💚 Happy National 4-H Week! 💚

What does 4-H mean to you?

For some, it’s where they found their confidence. For others, it’s friendships, opportunities, leadership, life lessons, or simply a place to belong.

But don’t just take our word for it—hear what 4-H means to the young people, parents, teachers, guardians, and alumni who have experienced it firsthand. 🍀

Here’s to the memories we’ve made, the lives we’ve impacted, and the future we’re growing together.

Happy National 4-H Week from Meigs County 4-H! 💚🍀

🎶 In the arms of an angel… 🎶

Okay, maybe we got a little dramatic with our TN 4-H Give Day video.

But behind every picture is a 4-Her with a story, a passion, and a future full of possibilities. 💚

4-H gives young people opportunities to learn, lead, serve, make lifelong friendships, and discover what they’re capable of.

Today, we’re asking you to invest in the next generation of Meigs County 4-H youth. Every gift helps provide experiences and opportunities that make a lasting difference.

Use this link today to donate: https://tn4hgive.org

When you give, be sure to select Meigs County to support our local 4-H program!

💚 Give today. Grow a 4-Her. Grow Tennessee.

Thank you for your support!
