One group of producers who don&#8217;t necessarily get enough recognition and support is women in agriculture. To help with this, I&#8217;m so pleased to tell you about our colleagues from Lincoln County Extension who are establishing a virtual group called <em>Cultivating  Connections<\/em>.  The group starts  Feb. 1 and meets quarterly.  All the information is below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a network of support is so important to wellbeing&#8211;being able to talk with people who &#8220;get it&#8221; about farming and having a life in agriculture. <em>Cultivating Connections<\/em> is a wonderful way to build and strengthen that network (which is an important part of our personal inventory&#8211;see my post <a href=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/thriving\/2023\/12\/hows-your-inventory\/\">How&#8217;s Your Inventory<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope lots of the women in agriculture will take a look and sign up for this virtual group. It won&#8217;t take much time, and will be a great way to connect with other women.  Thanks to Robyn Stewart and all the folks at Lincoln County UGA Extension for doing this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"506\" height=\"730\" src=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/thriving\/files\/2024\/01\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-629\" style=\"width:694px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/thriving\/files\/2024\/01\/image.png 506w, https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/thriving\/files\/2024\/01\/image-208x300.png 208w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 506px) 100vw, 506px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is always exciting to see creative people doing things to support farmers.
