Join us as we explore the world of rural and urban conservation with conservationist Rachel Lawton from the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)!

Whether you live in a bustling city or a rural community, this event is all about the future of our land, natural resources, and communities. Rachel will share conservation practices that can fit a variety of lifestyles and goals while highlighting programs and resources available through NRCS and your local Conservation District.

Whether you're a producer, landowner, industry professional, or simply interested in conservation, you'll leave with valuable information, practical ideas, and resources to help strengthen conservation efforts for future generations.

Women in agriculture and conservation spend so much time caring for livestock, land, families, and operations. This event is designed to pour back into you. 💚

Join us for an afternoon focused on physical, mental, and emotional wellness for women in agriculture and conservation. Hear an encouraging presentation from Ashley Curnow, connect with other women in agriculture, and leave with practical tools and resources to support your well-being and resilience.

This is a family-friendly event! Children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and little ones are welcome. We'll gather at a location with a play area for kids while adults enjoy the wellness presentation in a separate seating space.

Each attendee will receive a wellness resource folder featuring local physical, mental, and emotional health resources.

Come as you are, bring the kids, grab some ice cream, and spend an afternoon investing in yourself because taking care of you adds value to everything you care for.

Sometimes confidence doesn’t come from having all the answers.
Sometimes it comes from standing firm, just like the buffalo.

The North Central Hub recently gathered for a powerful panel discussion focused on growing confidence, embracing resilience, and learning how to keep moving forward even when challenges arise.

There’s something special about women coming together to share stories, encouragement, and reminders that strength is often built one step at a time.
