About Us
Due to current State of Illinois budgeting and upcoming and ongoing restraint in social gatherings, the SPIN Club is on hiatus for the 2020 growing season and therefore is officially dissolved as far as 4-H and U of I Extension is concerned.
​
If at anytime there is a group of 6 or more interested in forming to attain JMG as a private club, we will approach Cooperative Extension once more.
​
In the meantime, we are mentoring 4-Hers in Grand Ridge who seek direction for pursuing garden related fair projects. Ask you leader for more information
