Film Screening & Local Female Farmer Panel: Women’s Work, The Untold Story of America’s Female Farmers

We’ll be showcasing the Emmy-nominated feature-length film Women’s Work, The Untold Story of America’s Female Farmers, produced by Audra Mulkern, the driving force behind the Female Farmer Project.

Through a rich tapestry of narratives, "Women’s Work" celebrates the achievements of both historical and contemporary female farmers. The documentary offers a uniquely matrilineal perspective on America's farming history. It features insightful interviews and highlights women's diverse backgrounds and agricultural practices across the nation.
