Adams County 4-H Sheep Project

The 4-H Sheep Project teaches youth how to raise and care for sheep. Beginners learn about sheep anatomy, nutrition, diseases, and producing safe products. Intermediate members focus on managing and exhibiting sheep, production technology, and goal setting. Advanced participants gain leadership experience, address current industry issues, and explore career opportunities.
