This is a farm photo to attract attention to this post about losing our 4-H agent.

We want to share an important staffing update regarding our 4-H programming. Yesterday marks the last day for our 4-H leader, and we are grateful for the time, energy, and support they have given to our youth and families during their service.

Moving forward, 4-H programming in Wilkes County will continue through the NC Cooperative Extension office without interruption.
