4-H Plant Science & Related Curriculum Descriptions
4-H, the youth development component of Mecklenburg County Cooperative Extension provides lots of great educational resources for teachers and community volunteers. In regards, to youth gardening, educators and volunteers are most interested to learn about the curriculum 4-H can offer to supplement outdoor learning, STEM, and life cycles through experiential learning. 4-H School Enrichment programs and other curricula provide the opportunity for 4-H and local schools, both public and private, to team up to offer classroom enrichment programs and unique educational opportunities. 4-H also accommodates other delivery modes including after school, community clubs, and special interest. The 4-H Staff provides educational materials, resources, and support to classroom teachers for use in the classroom as well as support for afterschool sites and clubs. All trainings and allocation of resources are based upon need and current availability. To learn more about these opportunities and more please visit www.mecklenburgcounty4h.org.
