Women Farmers

As we are officially moving out of the country at the end of this month to be on the road full-time, we're already feeling the withdrawal and feel the need to write about all things green and country...

"Whether raising heritage livestock, combing the woods for exotic morsels or coaxing delicacies from the ground, these women forge new bonds between field and table, strengthening the connection between things we love to eat and the stewardship that makes them possible."

Great story with photos by Gareth McConnell about the eighty percent rise in women farmers over the past 20 years can be found here.
