That is so cool! I was in 4H when I was a kid, horses though. The whole idea started when I got my nieces 4 & 7 involved with the planning of our little farm. I am a recent empty nester, so to fill that void I take my sisters girls often. They don't even know where their food comes from. They went crazy when the found out that an egg "comes out of a chickens butt" (their words)!!! I am going to try my best to get something going, we'll seeand good luck with your endeavor. I hope you can make it work. We grow our own veggies and raise chickens. Thank goodness we are rural. Once in awhile I will have groups of kids over to see our operation and birds. You are correct that some have no idea about growing things or about chickens. In the past I have hatched chicks out for the 4H and their chicken raising projects. The 4H and FFA give the kids a list of breeds to choose from to raise for their projects. I was raising Buff Orpingtons for them. One of the 4H'ers entered a BO cockerel she had gotten from me and entered him in a show and got 1st place in the juniors. She was so proud and I was very proud of her.
