Cloverbuds learned about, fed, petted, and walked animals at their May meeting with teaching from some of our animal project 4-H members! There were goats, sheep, ducks, rabbits, and even a few kittens that hitched a ride on a trailer! Cloverbuds also went home with animal themed activity kits for continued learning.

We had a blast at Jefferson County Small Animal Livestock Learning Day! Project members from Dane and Dodge Counties joined us to practice showmanship, wash chickens, hop their rabbits, build a poultry carrier, and see if they have the skills to judge rabbits and poultry. Special thanks to Pete Dempsey, Dan Schwandt, Dan Brattlie, Donna Towel, Samantha Schwandt, Delainey Schwandt, and Hanna Brattlie for volunteering your time to support our youth. 🐇🍀🐓
