| Women Farmers in Sustainable Agriculture Share Words of Wisdom |
| As Women’s History Month continues, we’re spotlighting women who are pursuing a more connected, innovative, and sustainable future and recognizing their integral role in our food production. According to findings from the United States Department of Agriculture, women are operators on 51% of farms in the United States. This week, we talked with a few of the hardworking and successful women of the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market about how they started farming, why they have continued, and what they have learned along the way. |
