Success Stories
A "Pig" Deal - Country Ham Project Takes Off
Author: Amanda Sublett
Major Program: Agriculture
The 4-H Country Ham Project teaches youth about food production and Kentucky’s rich history with country ham. Marion County is home to the Marion County Country Ham Days, so the project has a deeper connection with our kids and community. The certified livestock leader came up with the idea to have a 4-H Country Ham Project Interest meeting to promote the project. The leader invited Dr. Gregg Rentfrow, UK Meats Specialist to give a presentation about what the project was about.
