North Idaho Annie’s Project

This all-women course fosters problem solving, record keeping, and decision-making skills around five areas of agricultural risk: production, legal, market, human and financial. Women farmers and ranchers attending the course will gain a better understanding of a variety topics such as business planning, market expansion, farm succession and retirement planning, using insurance to mitigate risk and finding and retaining employees. Participants will have ample time to talk with other women producers in the class and build their regional women in ag network.

This offering of Annie’s Project is open to women in Idaho’s ten northern counties: Boundary, Bonner, Shoshone, Kootenai, Benewah, Latah, Clearwater, Nez Perce, Lewis and Idaho. Annie’s Project will be offered in Southern Idaho beginning in February 2021. Please contact Ashlee Westerhold (ashleew@uidaho.edu) for more information.

The Annie’s Project mission is “to empower farm and ranch women to be better business partners through networks and by managing and organizing critical information”.
