The high-school students in the Madison County 4-H Teen Council put together 55 Fall Family Kits to be distributed to families in the community. These kits included art activities, recipes and ingredients and educational information on fall themed topics including pumpkins and apples. These teens felt there was a need in the community for fall family activities due to COVID-19 and the traditional community events being cancelled. The teens brainstormed the ideas for the kits, assisted with advertising and helped distribute the bags in partnership with Madison County Extension Office and one of the 4-H Agents.
