“Learn by doing” is an atmosphere where learning is fun and is an important element
of 4-H. In a project, members find things to learn, to do, to make, and to explore.
A 4-H project is:
Planned work in an area of interest to the 4-H member
Guided by a 4-H adult volunteer(s) who is the project leader
Aimed at planned objectives that can be attained and measured
Summarized by some form of record keeping
A minimum of six hours of project instruction
Inclusive of 4-H Curriculum resources
Based on the project structure demonstrated in CA 4-H Project Sheets
Falls in one of the CA 4-H Project Areas List of CA 4-H Projects
Each year, a 4-H member enrolls in at least one project. Members enrolling for the first time will be encouraged
to take on only one project.
As members gain experience, the size of the project may be increased or additional projects may be selected.
Some project groups meet once a week. Others meet once or twice a month. Project meetings may be in-
person, virtual or a combination of both (hybrid). The purpose of these meetings is to guide the members in
gaining knowledge, attitudes, skills, and habits needed to complete their work successfully. The availability of a
project depends upon whether an adult volunteer or teen leader is available to lead it.
