“The event was an uplifting and encouraging atmosphere, and the opportunity to network and meet other rural and professional women - it really was a day about women supporting women, and by lifting others we ourselves rise!”
“It was so lovely to meet all the creatives that you chat to on Instagram and Facebook. Life can get very busy and we all like to try and meet one another, so this was a perfect excuse to get into gear and meet everyone. The event was great and filled with a range of topics and emotions of high and lows, which is what we all go through in life and life on the land.”
“I loved meeting and hearing stories from all the women who are in business and may or may not also be running farms and the challenges they face. I was inspired "to just start" and to step up and make things happen for myself, family and community.”
“Women can do anything when they back themselves and can overcome the unique challenges that living rurally presents.”
“Networking opportunities with all of the guest speakers - they were all more than willing to share their experiences on an individual level.”
“That as a rural woman, I am capable of anything I put my mind to, the barriers in the agricultural sector of Victoria are all surmountable if you have the drive.”
“The most important message, coming through at the heart of all the beautiful sharing of stories & knowledge, was to honour our role in our lives! To simply take a moment to relish in celebrating being a woman in rural areas. So profound & so important!”
