The University of Illinois Extension is introducing kids of all ages to agriculture.

Anne Reinbold with the Extension in DeWitt, Macon, and Piatt Counties explains that 4-H and the Master Gardeners Program are teaming up for a new program, aimed at getting students thinking about agriculture, whether on the farm or in the garden. She says the next session comes up on February 21st at the Blue Ridge Township Public Library from 10 to 10:30 AM. 

Trying new things is a value of Reinbold and the 4-H Program as a whole. She is trying to teach students that you should not quit something because you are not good at it the first time. 

Register for the Little Sprouts Program by February 20th at extension.illinois.edu/dmp. Reinbold reminds that they will host the event once again on March 21st if you are unable to make it this time around.
