4-H
Each year more than 900 youth throughout the Treasure Valley participate in Idaho’s largest, dynamic, informal education program for youth. 4-H Clubs and special interest groups provide opportunities for youngsters to grow and develop life skills. At the fair the 4-H members exhibit the work they have completed during the year and celebrate their accomplishments. 4-H is learning by doing.
FFA
The Agricultural education program provides a well-rounded practical approach to learning through three components: Classroom education in agricultural topics such as plant and animal sciences, horticulture, forestry, agri-marketing, etc.: hands-on supervised agricultural career experience such as starting a business or working for an established company; and FFA, which provides leadership opportunities.
