GREEN Friday: Montana 4-H Foundation Kick Off Fundraising Online Auction

If you're avoiding the Black Friday madness by shopping online today, grab your gift list and check out the Montana 4-H Foundation's online Montana 4-H Emerald Auction.

The auction will last for 10 days, from ‘Green Friday’, November 24, through Giving Tuesday, and the Clover closing will be Monday, December 4.

The auction has quite a Clover Collection of items – from rustic coffee tables to breakfast baskets to Montana moments at an Airbnb.

There is a truly amazing selection. Our county 4-H Councils have curated collections to offer to you. You’ll be tempted by the products produced by 4-H members, alum, and volunteers have offered – woodworking, welding, and textiles. There have been some busy bees – providing a lot or two of homegrown honey!

It is a sweet deal to buy at this auction because you can give the gift that will give twice – once to support Montana 4-H and once to that special someone on your list.

Items donated by local 4-H members and supporters include:

• 50lbs of very lean ground beef, donated by Bobcat Angus of Galata
• 12" diameter Pottery bowl, made by Andy Watson, Big Sky Pottery of Fairfield and Bynum
• Coffee, Cocoa basket donated by Opportunity Bank
