Connect to Cultivate National Event Series: Euroa

Australian Women in Agriculture has been connecting and inspiring generations of women in agriculture for the past 30 years. For the past few years connections with rural women and women engaged within the agriculture industry have been so incredibly difficult.

To help bridge the gap following these hard times, AWiA have introduced the Connect to Cultivate – a national event series to help rural women re-connect and cultivate incredible outcomes across the country and beyond. Aligned with the 2022 International Day of Rural Women theme of “cultivating good for all”, the events will bring together women in agriculture in each state and territory and share stories of rural women cultivating good in their fields.

To help re-connect our members and friends in Victoria, AWiA will host an afternoon tea and dinner in Euroa, VIC at The Euroa Golf Club on Friday 9 December, 2022, sponsored by Budget Direct. Welcoming women from across Victoria, AWiA Directors, members and friends, this will be an opportunity to celebrate what has been achieved and what lies ahead. You will hear from AWiA VIC Director Sarah Parker, along with some very special speakers.

Hear from guest speakers and presentations from regional women leading change including:

• Dr. Kate Auty – Euroa community organiser, barrister, and beef farmer

• Karen Maroney – Deputy Chair of AgBiz Assist (Rural Financial Counselling Service)

• Cr Laura Binks – Mayor Strathbogie Shire and 2021 MBE Fellow
