All About: FarmHER

FarmHER is working to change how people perceive farmers by sharing the stories of the women who live and lead in agriculture.

Women have always been an important — but mostly unseen — aspect of agriculture. In recent years, women have risen to the forefront of agriculture in so many ways: as owners/operators, landowners, workers, mentors, and much more.

What is FarmHER?

FarmHER is about connecting with and shining a light on women in agriculture. Women who love the land, care for their community and feed the people.

As those in agriculture know, farming and ranching are not one size fits all. From the field to the classroom and even the boardroom, women in agriculture bring a unique and enthusiastic perspective to the equation.

Since its beginning in 2013, the brand has featured over 350 FarmHERs and operates a diverse set of media offerings including television, photography, events, social media, blogs, and podcasts.

Over a million people interact and experience FarmHER’s presence in their lives each month. To learn more about FarmHER, please sign up for our weekly newsletter.
