Animal Projects

Raising a beef animal is fun and can help you to undergo personal growth and to learn skills that will help you to become a more responsible person. The skills learned in raising livestock also will carry over into other aspects of 4-H life.
In the 4-H Beef Program, members have the opportunity to grow in the following areas:
Animal Care and Ownership
Honesty and Sportsmanship
Animal Health and Bio-security
Quality Assurance
Human Health
Ethics and Conduct
Raising an animal for market or education is a large commitment, but always meaningful, and details about each of the Santa Ynez 4-H animal projects for the 2007-2008 program year will be available soon, so please visit us again.
In the meantime, you can visit with us and with our four-legged friends at Santa Barbara Fair & Expo in April and Santa Barbara County Fair in July.
