Women in agriculture helping women in agriculture

Agriculture is stronger when women are connected.

A national community for women across ranching, farming, agribusiness and rural life, with local chapters, practical resources and a real voice in agriculture.

Why AWC exists

Women across agriculture are doing extraordinary work. Too often, they do it alone.

They run cattle operations and crop farms, lead agribusinesses, raise the next generation and hold rural communities together. But distance, industry silos, limited visibility and scattered resources make it hard to find each other.

AG Women Connect brings them together. Through chapters, resources, media and opportunity, women in agriculture can find trusted connection, practical help and a seat at the table.
