Women’s Food & Ag Annual Conference
WFAN’s mission is to engage women in building an ecological and just food and agricultural system through individual and community power. Our members work every day to fulfill a vision for a food system that supports farmers, eaters, and the environment.
This two-day annual conference is our opportunity to learn from our diverse peers, build a stronger network, and foster connections for long-lasting change. The conference will feature women in our network through regional field tours; day-long intensives; a farm-to-table dinner; art + story gallery featuring work by women farmers; creative community building; and workshops.
Are you a movement leader? Are you interested in running for office, but not sure where to start? This one-day workshop provides hands-on skills training to women in sustainable agriculture who want to play a critical role in transforming our nation’s food system.
Learn how to move people to action through stories with VoteRunLead trainer Kristin Foster. Meet and hear stories from like-minded women leading in public office and community organizing around food, farming, and healthy communities.
Plate to Politics is a program of the Women, Food and Agriculture Network and is strengthened by our partnership with VoteRunLead, a nonpartisan nonprofit organization that supports the aspirations of women who want to transform our country and democracy through their participation as leaders.
