Women are one of the fastest growing segments of new farmers and business owners, cultivating fresh and creative approaches to agriculture. This new day-long, on-farm workshop series provides women farmers and food-focused business owners with an inspiring blend of practical information, skill-building, farm tours, resource connections and networking opportunities to encourage and support this growing segment of organic farmers, entrepreneurs and agricultural leaders.

Hosted by Pamela & Larry Johnson of Still Point Farm. Speakers include Jen Lynch of LaFortuna Pizza and Clare Stone Fehsenfeld of Quince & Apple Preserves. Featured topics include value-added food enterprises, micro-greens and cut flowers. This workshop is facilitated by the MOSES Rural Women’s Project.
