Purdue Extension invites participants to the 2025 Ag Women Engage Conference, set for February 13, 2025, at the Grand Wayne Convention Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
This dynamic event celebrates the contributions of women across agriculture, with pre-conference activities scheduled for February 12.
The conference aims to unite women involved in farming, research, education, and ag-related industries. Attendees will enjoy networking opportunities, shared experiences, and valuable insights into addressing challenges and leveraging opportunities within the agricultural sector.
A highlight of the event is keynote speaker Courtenay DeHoff, a passionate agriculture advocate and executive producer of Backroad Cowgirls. She emphasizes storytelling as a tool to bridge the urban-rural divide, inspiring attendees to share their journeys.
Pre-conference sessions offer specialized learning experiences for those attending or unavailable for the main conference. Options include a visit to Johnnie Mae Farms to explore urban agriculture and canning, "Blossoming Success" for cut flower growers, and a session on grain marketing basics.
Early bird registration, priced at $125, closes on January 17, after which the fee increases to $135. For more details on sessions, accommodations, and registration, visit https://purdue.link/AWE25. Register directly at https://cvent.me/q5GOdw.
