Welcome to my blog! 

First, a little about myself.  I am presently in my 10th year of homeschooling (counting preschool).  I homeschool my daughter, who has been involved with 4-H since she was in 3rd grade.  She is now in her 6th year of 4-H.  Even though we are not involved in showing animals, she is very active with 4-H, and usually completes around 18 projects each year.
In the past, we have not used 4-H curriculum to supplement our school work.  However, I became interested in the possibility of doing this, and began researching to see how others had accomplished this task.  I was surprised to find very little information on this subject!  There are so many homeschoolers out there...and roughly 30% of 4-Hers are homeschoolers! 
I am beginning this blog in an effort to bring together others who have a like interest, and give us a place to discuss how we use 4-H curriculum in our homeschools.
Please feel free to put detailed information on how you have used 4-H curriculum in the past!
Thanks for reading my blog :)
