Camped on these ladies today, waiting on the work crew. Not so apparent in this picture, but there is still green grass, which is nearly unheard of for us in August!

Always nice to see that they are working well for customers.

Six year old SJRA 918 pictured at the end of his breeding season looks and acts half his age. His young daughters are attractive dark headed cows that milk down while working but stay on schedule breeding and handle winter with ease. His steer finish heavy with lean yield and have a calm demeanor with a real knack for being in the way while scraping and bedding.

So many things to learn! What was your most memorable, non livestock project? Mine was a red with white pin dot jumpsuit made from double knit fabric. Fortunately, I have no readily available photos from that dress revue!🤣😂

When most people think of 4-H, they tend to picture the livestock. Kids raising pigs, goats, sheep, chickens, rabbits, and steers.

But there’s also a whole other world of kids out there working just as hard on indoor projects.

These hands-on projects teach too many skills and trades to count.

There’s leatherwork, metalworking, and shooting sports.
Cake decorating, sewing, and baking.
Photography, survival skills, and woodworking.

If you can dream it up, there’s probably a 4-H project for it.

And that’s the beauty of 4-H.

It’s not just a way to keep kids busy during the summer—it’s an organization that helps shape them into capable, well-rounded young adults. Whether they go on to use these skills in a future career or not, the lessons they learn run far deeper.

They learn how plan and research.
How to follow instructions.
How to use their creativity to create something unique.
How to critique themselves and grow from their mistakes.
How to problem-solve with grit and perseverance—because learning something new isn’t always easy, but working through frustration matters.
They learn how to see a project through from start to finish, even when the process gets hard.

Livestock projects are incredible teachers, no doubt about it.

But these indoor projects?
They’re the unsung heroes—quietly helping to mold the next generation into thoughtful, skilled, and resourceful individuals.

4-H changes lives.

And if you ask me, these 4-H kids might just go on to change the world.

In the defense of mother nature...
We have been blessed in the last couple of weeks with a bit over 3" of rain due to some wild and erratic thunderstorms. It is amazing what a difference a little moisture makes!
