4-H Mission: To engage youth, in partnership with adults, in quality learning opportunities that enable them to shape and reach their full potential as active citizens in a global community.
We believe that kids learn best by doing. That's why all 4-H'ers do hands-on projects in areas like science, health, agriculture and civic engagement. We give them a positive learning environment and guidance from adult mentors. We encourage them to take leadership roles. And we offer opportunities for youth to learn, create, and practice new skills.
There are many ways to be involved in 4-H: from joining a club, participating in afterschool programs, 4-H summer camp, county showcases, or completing an independent project, there is something for everyone. Minnesota 4-H also partners with local youth agencies to provide support, collaboration, and reach new audiences.

The 4 "H's" stand for:
- Head: Youth engage actively in learning.
- Heart: Youth demonstrate caring and empathy for others and themselves.
- Hands: Youth share their experiences with others and help their family, peers, and community.
- Health: Youth learn ways to support their physical and mental wellbeing.
