Fresno County 4-H All Star has selected UCP of Central California as their Service Project - to bring Central Valley Agriculture to UCP's backyard for our students.

The All Stars team will put the finishing touches on one of the portable planters, work on craft projects with the students of UCP and provide garden themed treats and beverages for all attendees.

Who are the All-Stars? Through the University of California, Cooperative Extension of Fresno County - The All Star Team acts as ambassadors for Fresno County 4-H. They present awards ceremonies at county events, visit community clubs throughout the year, promote 4-H in the community, present a leadership session at the Leadership Conference for Regional Teens (LCORT), and organize the annual Achievement Night at the end of their All Star year.

The 4-H All Star Team has engaged in several ways to make this beautification come to light:

1.   Applied and received $1,000 competitive grant from the Revolution of Responsibility Program through 4-H to help fund the UCP project.

2.   All Fresno County Clubs have shared in the project by collecting donations and is hosting a county-wide 4-H yard sale in the parking lot at Clovis High School on Saturday, May 19th as a final fundraiser for the service project.

3.   Fowler High Ag teacher Paul Magill has provided instruction on planting techniques for vegetables as well as flowers.

4.   The All-Star team is producing an instructional video to leave in the Library at UCP
