Cassie Van Slyke reaches for the pizza sauce as she and Luz Acosta work on mini pizzas for lunch at a bake and take day Monday at the Pratt Area 4-H Center. 4-H’er Taylor DeWeese organized a day of baking goodies to deliver to businesses that support the 4-H program and also making lunch starting with homemade dough. Pratt County Extension Agent Jodi Drake and several 4-H leaders provided the instruction and supervision.
"4-H'ers are encouraged to show citizenship and leadership in all their projects," Drake noted. "Taylor did both with this day."
The Kansas Wheat Commission has designated March as Bake and Take Month as an opportunity to celebrate relationships with family and friends by sharing homemade goods with them. The 4-H'ers chose to say "thank you" with cookies, cinnamon rolls and other baked goods.
