Annie’s Project Retreat for Women in Agriculture

Annie’s Project Retreats

OSU Extension will offer an Annie’s Project Retreat December 1-3 at Salt Fork State Park Lodge and Conference Center, 14755 Cadiz Road, Lore City, OH 43755. Annie’s Project provides education and a support network to enhance business skills of women involved in all aspects of agriculture.

Annie spent her lifetime learning to be an involved farm business partner with her husband. Annie’s life experiences inspired her daughter, a university Extension agent, to create a program for women living and working in the complex, dynamic agriculture business environment.

Annie’s Project fosters problem solving, record keeping, and decision-making skills in farm women. Women will receive training in five areas of agricultural risk management: financial, marketing, production, legal, and human resources.

The participant fee is $105 per person, which includes all materials and meals. Lodging is $99 per room per night with up to four people per room. Details can be found on the Annie’s Project Registration Flyer.  Sponsors of the program include Farm Credit and Nationwide.

Registration deadline is November 17. For more information please contact Emily Adams at the Coshocton County Extension Office at 740-622-2265 or adams.661@osu.edu .
