A Special Learning Circle Series for Collaborative Learning

Register Now

Are you a woman farmer (or hope to be) who wants to keep farming and ranching in a healthy manner for a long time? 

Join us for a unique, monthly online series running September through May covering a range of topics to help us preserve and protect our most important farming tool: our own bodies. 

These sessions continue a successful pilot to create such safe, supportive “Learning Circle” spaces for women-identifying farmers to share and learn together. 

Each month we will cover a different theme and topic, including both mental and physical health awareness along with a new movement exercise we’ll do together. Come whenever you can or -- better yet -- come to all!  Free to attend.  

After you register, you will receive an email with the Zoom link, along with the dates and topics for the full series. We will also send monthly reminders about the upcoming sessions.

Note these sessions will not be recorded as they are discussion and sharing based.  Come for something fresh and different from the expected webinar.

Learning Circle Times

All sessions are on Wednesdays.
Eastern: 12-12:45 pm | Central: 11-11:45 am | Mountain: 10-10:45 am | Pacific: 9-9:45 am
