Annie’s Project is an educational program designed to empower women involved in agriculture by building their confidence, knowledge, and decision-making skills. Through expert-led sessions and practical discussions, participants gain tools to better manage and grow their farm or agricultural business.

Topics will include farm programs, business plans, women and money, marketing, estate planning, and more. Sessions provide practical, real-world information and introduce participants to valuable resources and professionals they can connect with in their local area.
Whether you are new to agriculture or have years of experience, Annie’s Project offers a supportive learning environment to help you strengthen your business, plan for the future, and make informed decisions with confidence.
