The day begins with learning how to use your "financial numbers" to establish a cash flow that includes your farm and personal living expenses and designed to strengthen your farm operation. The day continues with a panel of local women farmers who live in your area. They will talk about the different ways they balance their lives - with their top tips for handling finances and their personal lives. The final take-away message with the cap note speaker will be all about making it possible to do what you love the most!
Participants will have the opportunity to meet farmers from their area, compare their jobs, ask and answer questions and build a community network. It will be a full day of laughing, learning and networking!
