Adopt a 4-H Dairy Calf!

(Updated: Aug. 15, 2025, 6:09 a.m.)

Help support the Onslow Dairy Project by purchasing a $100 sponsorship to adopt a 4-H calf!


Graphic features images of dairy calves with Onslow County 4-H'ers.

The Onslow Dairy Project is a great opportunity for youth in Onslow to learn responsibility, how to take care of a dairy calf, and how to show their dairy calf. We need your support to help our project! Consider "adopting" a calf today!

Adoption includes weekly pictures of your calf, meet and greet with your calf and 4-H youth, and recognition at the Onslow Dairy Derby (date TBD)!

*All funds raised will be used to purchase 2 sets of cordless clippers, new brushes, and sharpen blades on existing clippers.* 

Want to adopt? Contact Crops & Livestock Agent Melissa Huffman

*This is a SPONSORSHIP ONLY. You will not own the calf you “adopt.”*
