The 4-H Livestock Program provides opportunities for 4-H members to select, care for, train, and show their very own animal.   The Livestock program in McMinn County includes: beef and dairy cattle, market hogs, sheep, poultry*, horses*, and goats. 4-Her's can participate in all levels of competition from county events, to larger regional and state events. 

There is a strict time line for selecting and tagging animals for these events, so please contact Cayci Leamon at the UT Extension Office at 745-2852, if you do not find the information you need below. Entry forms and the lease agreement form are located near the bottom of the page.
