ANNIES PROJECT-EDUCATION FOR FARM WOMEN

Mission

The mission of Annie's Project-Education for Farm Women (APEFW) is to empower women in agriculture to be successful through education, networks, and resources. APEFW conducts training for facilitators who, in turn, deliver Annie's Project classes using the Annie's Project Methodology which means small groups; safe, dynamic, and interactive class environment, vetted presenters, and unbiased research-based information. A local steering committee formed by the trained facilitator adapts the program to the area of delivery by selecting relevant and specific topics. Core values of the program are safe harbor, shared experiences, discovery, and connection. The result is a confident farm woman with improved business and decision-making skills, and a network of peers and professionals to support her and her community.
