Payment is due on this day and participation waivers are required. Signup Deadlines: 4/15/2022: Youth wishing to show in 4H competitions must be enrolled in Benton County 4H by this date. Love llamas but don't own one? No problem! Use one of ours! Youth llama Project is a three-month summer program that meets weekly at Stony Meadows Farm. Participants will be leased a llama and provided hands-on instruction at Stony Meadows Farm. Your leased llama will live here at the farm, so you don't need a place to keep it. Youth will have the opportunity to show their llama at up to three competitions. 1. Benton County Fair Open Llama Show 2. Benton County Fair 4H Llama Show 3. MN State Fair 4H Llama Show. (Must qualify for show at Benton County Fair) (4H shows require 4H membership in Benton County which is free.) The program focuses on these three areas: 1. Relationship 2. Showmanship 3. Herdsmanship
