We're excited to be filming on the Gila River nation next month with a farmer who is doing incredible work to reintroduce indigenous foods and grow them at scale.
Female farmers are critical for their communities' food security, but face unique challenges—in addition to the unpredictability of markets & weather, women have difficulty taking out loans and lack childcare that enables them to raise both crops and a family.
Just 9 more days! Proposals for RWSA 2024 are due June 1. Submit proposals for entire sessions or individual presentations to [email protected]. https://t.co/kLbcWpSEVy
We are proud to have @CentralLifeSci as a Presenting Sponsor. We thank them on behalf of all who find inspiration from the generations of women who have farmed, who have loved the land, and who have sacrificed and made immeasurable impacts on farming and food in America.
From WSPC:
"The Washington State Potato Commission is proud to Support the Women's Work Documentary. We believe it is important to tell the story of women in farming, the challenges they have faced in agriculture and the strength they have brought to it throughout history."

In this 2020 TEDxSeattle talk, @AudraGM shares her journey to put female farmers back in the picture. She wants to help them mow down the “grass ceiling” (how much do we love that expression?!) and drive the agricultural industry forward. https://t.co/THq5F9hkZp
