Farm Management Education for Farm Women

Our Women in Ag offerings today are traced back to the inspiration provided by a farmer’s wife and business partner in Illinois.

Annie grew up in a small farm community with the goal to marry a farmer and she did! Life was not always easy. Annie spent her life learning how to be an involved business partner with her husband.

Annie’s Project, and later workshops related to farm finance and farm transition, were designed by her daughter, Ruth Fleck Hambleton, an Extension Educator specializing in farm risk management at the University of Illinois.

Annie’s Project is an educational program dedicated to strengthening women’s roles in modern farm enterprises.

This 6-week workshop focuses on five key areas of risk management: human, financial, marketing, production, and legal. Women learn about agribusiness practices from experts in their fields. They also form valuable networks with others in the class.
