Dairy Project Registration for 2025 will open in July! Check back for next years project!

Join us for the 4-H Down East Dairy Project to learn more about Jersey heifer calves. This project will allow youth to get hands on experience with gentle calves while learning about their life cycle, animal care, the dairy industry, and preparing for a show.

The project is sponsored by Simply Natural Creamery and Jersey Farm in Ormondsville, NC and hosted by Greene County 4-H. Each calf is approximately 4-7 months old. Participants are required to attend at least one practice each week. The two available practice days are Mondays 5-7 p.m. and Thursdays 5-7 p.m.

If you are not already enrolled in North Carolina 4-H, you will be asked to enroll online: 4-H Forms- Online Registration  Select NC, Set up Family Profile,  then add ‘youth’.

This event is also educational! We require each child to complete a 4-H Down East Dairy Project Activity Book.

Registration is via Eventbrite only. You must register and pay online ($40.00). Youth will receive a t-shirt at the end of the project as well. When you click below, you will be redirected to the Eventbrite website.

  • Register here to participate!  Practices are from 5-7 p.m. (floating). The first practice day you should expect to stay the whole time. The remaining practices are floating, but you should arrive by 6:30 if you plan to work with your calf.
