I partnered with Daviess County Agents to have an Annie's Project Program. This is a program for any women in the agriculture field whether they run their own business, married a farmer or work in agriculture. It was a 6 week long program and we had speakers come in to cover various different topics. Some of the topics included working with family and employees on a farm, production risk management, grain marketing, financial terminology and mental health just to name a few. The educational program response was great. We had attendees from both Henderson and Daviess County and had a lot of compliments on the program. Many mentioned that they learned a lot and were glad that they participated.
