We have many youth that are interested in becoming 4-H Clovers but we are in need of dedicated teen and adult volunteers to run clover clubs. To prepare interested adult volunteers and teen leaders to lead 4-H Clovers, 4-H Clover Training Sessions are often offered. The Dorchester County Cooperative Extension 4-H staff will also assist you with getting a club started in your area, as well as providing background and clover curriculum materials.

To learn more about becoming a Clover Leader and upcoming Clover Training Sessions, contact the 4-H Office at (410) 228-8800 or complete the 4-H Information Form.
