Women are Changing the Face of Agriculture

I know, I missed another Friday Farm Photo. I'm really sorry! However, I had a good excuse this time: I was at the Illinois AgriWomen "Changing the Face of Agriculture" conference yesterday. I did some awesome networking, learned a lot, and actually got paid to go. I spent the day video-taping the conference, and will be starting post-production during the week. I'm thrilled about that.

So, Monday or Tuesday (depending on how much time I have to edit it) I'll have a video blog post up for your viewing pleasure!

This conference was a wonderful experience for many reasons. It was a great opportunity to meet other professionals in the field. I collected several business cards (and freebies!) throughout the day.

Plenty of young women came to hear about career opportunities and ideas from a wide variety of presenters. The displays were informative, the women presenting were friendly, open, and engaging, and the lunch was delicious.

Overall, it was a great day. I won't bore you with words now when, hopefully, there will be a nice video blog up next week!
