In this episode, Julea and Sara sit down with Kati Purkett from the Hill County MSU Extension Office to explore the powerhouse behind local youth development—4-H—and all the incredible programs the Extension office offers. From food safety classes and culinary education to youth mental health, livestock projects, and the Great Northern Fair, Kati shares how Extension touches nearly every corner of our community.
We also dive into the beloved 4-H Chuck Wagon, what goes into raising animals for auction, why MontGuides are a hidden gem, and how to rent one of the best event spaces in town. Whether you're a fair junkie, former 4-Her, or just curious about rural community life, this episode is packed with stories, laughs, and local pride.
🐷 🐮 🍟 Come for the cheese fries, stay for the impact.
