Share your story with legislators on Women in Ag Day, March 18!
All individuals and families engaged in agriculture are invited to the Day at the Capitol event, where you can contribute insights from your everyday experiences in agriculture.
Whether you're tending to your farm or ranch, raising livestock, involved with large scale row crops, selling specialty crops, or inviting the public to your agritourism effort, we invite you to this day specially designed for you to share information. If you work at an agribusiness or in the agricultural sector, this day is for you! Your unique perspective is valuable and deserves to be heard.
What barriers do you face? What is your life like day-to-day? What do you love about agriculture? What do you love about being a farmer, rancher, or working in your part of agriculture? What successes have you realized and experienced?
RSVP to participate! (Registration is encouraged. However, walk-ins are welcome to participate in the event's activities.)
Women in Ag Day at the Capitol is hosted by University of Minnesota Extension and the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. Participants do not need to be affiliated with any of the host organizations. This event is open to all regardless of gender identity or expression.
