In Her Boots: Sustainable Agriculture Workshops For Women, By Women
Facilitated by the Midwest Organic & Sustainable Education Service Rural Women’s Project

More info and registration links at: www.mosesorganic.org/womensprojectinherboots.html

Spend the day with an inspiring group of women farmers and educators dedicated to transforming our food system. This day-long, on-farm workshop includes a farm tour, lunch (sponsored by Organic Valley) and a variety of breakout sessions. With a focus on sharing experiences, stories and ideas, the In Her Boots format, facilitated by the MOSES Rural Women’s Project, builds on the idea that women farmers learn best from each other. Bring your questions! Women just starting on their organic farm or food business dream are especially encouraged to attend.

Three all-day, on-farm Boots workshops will be held in 2013. Each workshop has different speakers and topics and women are welcomed to attend more than one:

Sun. Aug. 4, 2013: Canoe Creek Produce (Decorah, IA)
Thurs. Aug. 8, 2013: Dancing Winds Farm (Kenyon, MN)
Sun. Aug. 18, 2013: Scotch Hill Farm (Brodhead, WI), in partnership with the FairShare Coalition

Pre-registration is required and space is limited.
