4-H CAREER EXPLORATION


CALLING ALL GARDEN-LOVING 4-H'ERS



Are you a registered 4-H member who loves to garden?

This summer, we are looking for interested 4-H’ers who would be willing to help in our garden in exchange for a share of the garden’s produce. This opportunity would also provide community service hours, as a portion of the produce from the garden will be donated to local food pantries. 

For more information, or to sign-up for a garden helper slot, please contact Marybeth Mitcham at: mem467@cornell.edu or 518-668-4881.  


YARD SALE ITEMS BEING SOUGHT



We will be accepting donations of gently used household and garden items for our 2nd Annual 4-H Yard Sale.   

You can deliver your treasures Mon-Fri from 8:30 am – 4:30 pm.  (Because the items will be stored in our shed, any temperature sensitive items should be held onto until spring.)

We are grateful for any donation but will not be accepting large upholstered furniture,
mattresses, clothing, large electronics or computers. 

If you have any questions, please call Roxanne at 668-4881 or my e-mail at rmw38@cornell.edu.
