4-H Youth exhibit livestock at the 2024 Minnesota State Fair

FALCON HEIGHTS—4-H youth from across Minnesota again showcased their learning in the 4-H during the first four day of the Minnesota State Fair.

Throughout the year, 4-H youth select project areas that reflect personal areas of interest and pursue hands-on learning in both self-directed and guided environments. The results of their learning are exhibited at county fairs and other showcase events across the state. A collection of the best exhibits from each fair and showcase are brought to the Minnesota State Fair.

Exhibiting project work at the state fair provides youth an opportunity to showcase their achievements and continue learning through interactive judging with project experts and team experiences.

The presentations, exhibits and presence of 4-H youth from diverse communities across Minnesota brought renewed and welcomed energy. See the full results and photos at z.umn.edu/4h-state-fair-results.
