Maine 4-H is launching a new session cohort for interested eligible youth for the Maine 4-H Agricultural Ambassadors program!\u00a0 The program is designed for youth ages 14-18 who are interested in any aspect of agriculture.\u00a0 Youth spend time getting to know each other and learning both online and in person facilitated by UMaine 4-H Staff, and community partners. Sessions will focus on career exploration, exploring the Maine Food System with farm and production visits around the state, and building relationships with industry professionals.<\/p>\n

This season we will be visiting local Maine Ag business like\u00a0Springworks Farm<\/a>\u00a0where youth will get to tour and explore the facilities and learn about their state-of-the-art organic aquaponics system. Check them out!<\/p>\n

In addition to the multi week session, youth will serve in their ambassador role for at least 1 year. Youth will pick an agricultural area to focus on (ex. livestock, ag literacy\/food systems, environmental stewardship, Ag and health) during their term and explore opportunities for leadership locally, statewide and even nationally. Register today!<\/p>\n

Spring 2024 Dates<\/strong>
\nOnline: March 19 & March 26, April 2 & April 9
\nIn-Person: March 23 & March 30
