Female Farmer Profile Project
Each month we do our best to highlight female farmers in our area. If you are interested in being featured or would like to nominate someone, please contact us.
This project was inspired by Logan Field's project Women Farmers: Interpretations of Women in Agriculture. We thank her for her contributions and passion for this work.

Holly's passion for seed saving extends far beyond the economic benefits. The presentation she gave on Jan 24th demonstrated this love and commitment to seed saving while highlighting the obvious, and not-so-obvious, benefits of this ancient art.
We were able to provide Holly with a small grant for this endeavor thanks to the generosity of the Appalachian Women's Fund.
