4-H impacts lives.

From showing animals at the fair to working in medical laboratory science to interviewing famous musicians as a journalist, Sarah's 4-H experience has contributed to her success.

"4-H had given me many of the tools I still use today...interviewing and research were used with every one of them, along with punctuality and structure."

Now, Sarah is excited to share 4-H with the next generation!

"4-H gave me a bond with my own mother I wouldn't have otherwise, and now I can connect to my daughter the same way. I often look up and know my mother is up there beaming as my daughter walks to the ring or presents for 4-H. I know she would be just as proud of her and be right there with me cheering her on if she was still with me."

💚 Gus's Story ❤

"...I am a ninth year 4-H member in Golden Valley County. I started 4-H as a Cloverbud at 6 years old. My reluctant parents helped me start a baby lamb project, and I raised two bum lambs when I was 7. By age 9, I had bought my first bred ewes for my 4-H breeding sheep project.

"I started raising lambs to show and to start a college fund for my future. Over the years, my flock grew, but my income did not grow as fast as I would have liked. I brainstormed ideas to add value to my breeding project, and through 4-H Meats Judging, I realized that lamb is hard to find in traditional grocery stores... I came to the conclusion that I wanted to help more people try lamb as a part of their diet, while increasing my profitability. Last November, I received my ND Retail Meat Permit and started Walking U Meats. I am currently successfully marketing my first five lambs as retail meat cuts creating a value added opportunity for my sheep breeding project.

"In eight years, I have grown from two bum lambs to a successful small business owner thanks in part to my 4-H experiences. I look forward to where my sheep project goes as I finish my 4-H career over the next four years."
