Free Holmes County 4-H Open House at Harvest Ridge March 8

Families planning 4‑H projects for 2026 can meet club advisors and livestock committee members at a free Holmes Co 4‑H Open House scheduled for Sunday, March 8 from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. EDT in the Baker Building at Harvest Ridge, 8880 State Route 39 in Millersburg. The event is hosted by Ohio State - Holmes County 4‑H, the local arm of Ohio State University Extension.

The open house listing on Allevents lays out the practical purpose: "Want to learn more about joining the Holmes County 4‑H program or figuring out what projects to take in 2026?" Attendees can "meet 4‑H club advisors, look through project books, meet with camp counselors, and talk with livestock committee members" during the two‑hour session, according to the event description. The Allevents page also notes the event will be held in the Baker Building and advertises that "Event is FREE!"

Organizer and partner names appear across listings. The Facebook event is public and hosted by Ohio State - Holmes County 4‑H, and an original partner list provided with the event names Holmes County Chamber of Commerce, Holmes County DD, Cardinal Rehab, Harvest Ridge Event Center and local volunteer clubs. Allevents shows 29+ people are Interested on its page and includes a "To stay informed about ticket information or to know if tickets are not required, click the 'Notify me' button below" prompt for users tracking the event.

Logistics on the Allevents page specify calendar export options (Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, iCal, Yahoo Calendar) and emphasize local orientation with the tagline "Only get lost while having fun, not on the road!" The event time is listed in EDT on both the Facebook and Allevents listings; the Baker Building is identified as the indoor venue at Harvest Ridge Fairgrounds where 4‑H activities are frequently held.

Harvest Ridge is already a hub for county 4‑H and fair programming on the OSU Extension Holmes County pages captured with the event listing. Those pages show a history of Harvest Ridge Fairgrounds scheduling, including a February 20, 2025 entry at the fairgrounds and a detailed August fair schedule with activities such as Poultry Judging, Meat Goat judging and a Full Throttle Monster Truck Event, and a Saturday, August 9 entry listing a 4‑H Awards Ceremony at 11:00 a.m. That calendar context underscores Harvest Ridge's role as the county venue for livestock, judging and 4‑H booth events that the open house will help prospective members navigate.

Allevents also surfaces related spring items on the same site, including a Bunny Brunch & Community Easter Egg Hunt listed for March 21 at 9:00 a.m. in Millersburg and Quality Assurance sessions listed for April 1 and April 21 at 6:30 p.m. Those listings appear as nearby events on the same page that promotes the March 8 open house.
