Annie’s Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing educational programs designed to strengthen women’s roles in the modern farm enterprise. Working with partners across the United States, Annie’s Project helps female farmers build viable and sustainable farm businesses. WVU Extension partners with Annie’s Project to offer female farmers and agribusiness owners an opportunity to learn more about holistic business planning and risk management in a virtual, flexible format.
The annual West Virginia Women in Agriculture Conference November 17-18 at Canaan Valley Resort will provide research-based and practical educational opportunities for agribusiness women while fostering networking and leadership development.
Workshops focus on the five areas of risk management and production enterprises. Farm tours highlight successful operations and provide opportunities for participants to learn from other’s experiences. The conference rotates annually to demonstrate the diversity of agricultural enterprises throughout West Virginia.
