Project Areas
Montana 4-H offers a wide variety of projects for youth participation.
Projects are lead by our wonderful volunteer Superintendents who have a special expertise or interest in the project.
You can find out more about projects and project requirements in the 2021 Clover.
If you have a project question, reach out to the Project Superintendent.
You can find a list of all Superintendents in the 4-H Council Directory or specific Superintendents on the project pages.
Occasionally, if we don't have a superintendent to lead a project, the youth can still complete the project through self-directed, independent learning. Please contact the Extension Office.
