Let's try this again:

Thank you all for the submissions to our virtual pumpkin contest! The competition this year was super tough. So tough in fact that we added a new special category of Pumpkin Pictures! Our judge chose 5 students in each division to give this special reward based on "quality of picture and how proud students looked about their work."
Congratulations to all of our winners! 🎃
Results will be in our January Clover Chatter and we will be handing out ribbons at January Club Meetings.

Again, thank you to everyone who let us know about the missing entries. If your student's name still does not appear on this list let us know. As Iberia 4-H, we want to make sure that the work of all our students is fostered and awarded and the absolute last thing we want to do is leave anyone behind. Thank you all for your patience as well!

Are you ready for a beautiful sight? ❄️

Our Winter Wonderland is back this year by popular demand! on December 2nd at the Harold Landry Memorial Building from 7:00-9:00, we are inviting 4-H'ers in 4-6th grade to come and dance the night away with us! Students are allowed to bring one guest 4th-6th grade age who does not need to be a 4-H'er. Students are encouraged to pick up tickets from their 4-H Leaders, but they should be paid for at the door. Parents and leaders are allowed to attend.

This event is hosted by our Junior Leader Club. We encourage all of our junior leaders to volunteer at this event and bring supplies!

11/23/2022

We have been notified that many student entries into the pumpkin contest were not listed in our official results. After looking into this situation, we discovered that many entries were not received, as they were delivered to our spam folder without our knowledge. Now that we have located these entries, we are working on revising the results and making sure that every student is recognized for their hard work!

We are sorry for this mistake. We are hoping to have updated results as soon as possible. Thank you to those who pointed out the issue and thanks to you all for understanding!

Our annual pumpkin decorating competition is just around the corner. 4-H'ers are invited to decorate up to one pumpkin for each of our four categories:

4-H Spirit - Whip out your greens, whites, and clover making skills to show us how much you love 4-H! 🍀
Spooky Carved - Sometimes nothing can beat classic jack-o'-lantern styled Halloween decor. Spooky, scary, skeletons (and friends) welcome! 👻
The only limit on this competition is your imagination (and no use of electronics as part of the final presentation 🙈). You must email us a picture of the pumpkin and you holding the pumpkin to [email protected] (but remember that you cannot send us messages from school emails!)
For more information, please see the full rules posted on Facebook with the Clover Chatter!

We are rounding out our National 4-H week posts with Friendship Friday!

4-H is a great place to meet new friends, from your school, to your parish, to your state! You may be make friends in your school club, junior leaders club, project clubs or even parish and state competitions. One of the best ways to make friends is to find something that you're interested in (cooking, shooting sports, fashion, STEM, etc.) and get involved! You can also make friends all over the state by going to camp or even joining a state leadership board. In 4-H, you will be able to make lifelong friends!

It's national 4-H week! Happy Thankful Thursday 🙏

4-H is such an influential part in the lives of so many young people and their families. Today we want to reminisce on how much 4-H has done for all of us. This includes the friends we've made, the places we've been, opportunities that we have been given, and everything we have learned along the way! So what is it in 4-H the you are most thankful for? The people? The experiences? The t-shirts? Whatever it is, take a moment today to be mindful and show thanks!

It's National 4-H Week! Happy We Build Leaders Wednesday!

The Louisiana 4-H program impacts almost 200,000 youth each year with programs about leadership, citizenship, healthy living, and STEM. Louisiana 4-H has six State Boards and two Ambassador Teams allowing members high school members to use their leadership skills to serve others. Besides State Leadership Boards, other ways you can become a leader are running for a club office, teaching a small group something about your project, conducting a demonstration in front of your club, or serving a mentor for others.

Have you ever looked into leadership opportunities that you could participate in?
One great opportunity to learn and practice leadership skills is by joining the Iberia Parish Jr. Leader Club. Our next meeting is on October 12th at 5:30 in the 4-H Office, and it is open to all Iberia Parish 4-Her's in 7th-12th grade. We can't wait to see you there! 🍀😄

Achievement Day was held on Saturday, April 9th at Westgate High School and we had a wonderful time! 4-H'ers competed in various activities ranging from the ever-popular "song & yell" contest to individual project-based contests.

I recently discovered the documentary Kiss the Ground, and it has changed the way I view climate change forever. Finally, we have some ideas that will help stop and reverse global warming. “It is as old as dirt” said Woody Harrelson, and that’s because our solution is soil. We have been looking for outside resources for so long we forgot to consider what’s been under our nose this entire time. This documentary is perfect for all ages because it is entertaining and uses persuasive techniques to show the world change is possible. If you want to obtain the free educational cut, go to
