4-H added information about waste reduction in their monthly newsletter, reaching 400 families each month. They developed two new curriculum plans (“Waste Busters!” and “Gizmos & Gadgets”) that were used to engage 279 youth in waste reduction activities through 4-H clubs. These curricula are now available on their website and can be checked out by 4-H clubs and other youth development programs. Topics focus on creative reuse of materials for science and art projects, composting, and others. Six 4H clubs received a mini Community POWER grant and taught an additional 600 people about waste reduction at the Washington County Fair, day camps, and other community events.
