House District 62 Representative Donald Valdez welcomes the Southern Colorado chapter of 4-H to the legislature in Denver on January 30.

“As a lifelong farmer, I fully support all the work 4-H does with our youth in our communities,” Valdez said. “4-H provides opportunities for young farmers of Colorado to learn the important skills that allow them to become leaders and valued members of their rural communities. After meeting with these bright students, we need to continue to involve our youth in 4-H and agricultural life.”
