4-H Youth Program
Articles - 4-H / Youth

Welcome to Alabama's 4-H youth program. Today your child or young adult became one of more than 82,000 boys and girls in Alabama who are already involved in 4-H. These young people are using the four H's--Head, Heart, Hands, and Health--to learn and grow as individuals, family and community members, and citizens. Through the 4-H experience they learn that the joy of achievement is earned, not given. They gain an appreciation for individual responsibility and service to others. They also develop leadership skills and learn the basic moral and ethical values that made this country great.

Today's youth are clamoring for immediate solutions to society's problems and stresses. In response, 4-H provides motivation, role models, and a direction for channeling the energies of our youth. Through 4-H experiences each young person can build toward a bright future and become a successful member of society.

San Clemente Island Goats
Articles - Management, Housing, Feeding

San Clemente Island is located 68 miles west of the coast of San Diego, California. Legend has it that Spanish explorers left goats on the island as a food source for future sailors. For the next 500 years, these goats lived, died, and multiplied—isolated on the island with virtually no human contact. At least, that's what we've always heard. This is a myth. Evidence indicates that San Clemente Island goats were brought to San Clemente Island in 1875 by Salvador Ramirez, who claimed to have brought them from Santa Catalina Island.
