Thank you to everyone who joined us last Tuesday for our webinar on Mental Health, Isolation, and the Wellbeing of Women Farmers!

We were joined by 51 participants from across the globe - Australia, Kenya, Uganda, Canada, Cameroon, UK, India, the Netherlands, Namibia, USA, and South Africa, for a powerful conversation on the realities of farming life.

Our 5 guest speakers shared their personal stories and professional insights on mental health in farming communities, the challenges of isolation, and the support systems that help women farmers thrive. 💚
