Farm Foundation and the National 4-H Council recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding with a focus on collaboration in leadership, education, and youth workforce readiness for young people.
The two organizations will align on career exploration, leadership training, and skill-building opportunities for youth through the Farm Foundation’s Next Generation programs and 4-H’s recently launched Beyond Ready Initiative.
This collaboration will help strengthen young learners’ interest in food and agriculture career pathways as early as elementary school.
Additionally, it will help create a ready pipeline of future leaders as they graduate high school and college.
“The extended partnership with Farm Foundation further strengthens our ability to prepare young people for success in agriculture, food science, and beyond,” says Jill Bramble, president and CEO of the National 4-H Council.
“Our collaboration will equip youth with the leadership, skills, and confidence they need to be Beyond Ready for the workforce of tomorrow.”
