Hello New York AgWomen! Attached please find our postcard for the upcoming Women in Food & Farming series at Stone Barns Center for Food & Agriculture. The events are as follows:
Women in Food & Farming: A Program Series Celebrating Northeast Farms and the Women Who Sustain Them.
This series of discussions brings an incredible group of women to the Hay Barn this month.
