The American Farm Bureau Convention is one of the largest gatherings of the agriculture community in the nation. Every year, thousands of farmers, ranchers, agribusiness professionals and community leaders come together to learn from one another, hear new perspectives and return home with ideas.

This past week, these amazing women farmers attended the International Year of the Woman Farmer ACE Summit in Washington, D.C.

We were fortunate to hear from inspiring women leaders in agriculture, participate in outstanding educational sessions, and connect with advocates from across the country. The summit concluded with visits to Capitol Hill, where we had the opportunity to meet with our representatives and their staff to discuss issues important to agriculture and our rural communities.

The experience was both educational and empowering, and I believe everyone left feeling energized, inspired, and ready to make a difference in the agriculture industry. Together, we will continue to advocate, cultivate, and empower while helping shape a strong future for agriculture.

If any of the other ladies have pictures to share from the event, please do!
