Since the late 1990's, the Kentucky 4-H Country Ham Project has been an annual tradition at the Kentucky State Fair. The project began with less than 40 participants. Today, there are nearly 800 entrants from approximately 70 counties. Typically, youth prepare their hams and give a speech to accompany their project. Due to the current pandemic, 4-Her's submitted their hams and wrote an essay in place of the speech. Bell County 4-H had three youth that participated in the project in 2020.
