I had the opportunity to visit with members of the state 4-H staff in Louisiana last week. While there, one of the highlights was visiting the Louisiana 4-H state museum, located in Avoyelles Parish in central Louisiana. This museum highlighted not only 4-H history in Louisiana but also told the story of agriculture in the state.
