During the annual National 4-H Legacy Awards Celebration in April 2015, National 4-H Council announced Grammy Award-winning singer and 4-H alumna Jennifer Nettles as the first official national 4-H spokesperson.
Growing up in the small town of Douglas, Georgia, Jennifer was a member of 4-H and participated in the Georgia 4-H's Clover and Company performing arts group from 1986 to 1993. In 2003 Jennifer Nettles teamed up with Kristen Hall and Kristian Bush to form Sugarland, one of the top country music groups in America.
At the time of agreeing to become 4-H's national spokesperson in March 2015, Jennifer was appearing on Broadway in the role of Roxy Hart in the smash hit Broadway musical, "Chicago."
