2025 Women in Agriculture Regional Conference – Stevensville, MD

Due to the impending weather forecast for February 11 and 12, we have made the difficult decision to postpone this year’s conference. With reports of snow and ice impacting travel, our top priority is ensuring everyone’s safety.

We are now planning to reschedule the conference for Wednesday, March 5. We will keep you registered for the conference. If you are unavailable, please respond by February 21st by filling out this form – https://forms.gle/uD5i7CBeLoJy7e5AA (you must complete the form to get reimbursed if you do not complete the form, we will consider you still registered for the conference and see you on March 5). Additionally, there are still spaces to register, so feel free to share with family, friends, and colleagues.

Thank you for your support and flexibility. As we all know, with farming and Mother Nature, sometimes you have to roll with it!

The College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (AGNR) as a business entity (Extension Service and AGNR Research) and recipient of federal financial assistance delivers educational programming and leading research. Partnerships formed within our local communities, stakeholder involvement, and disseminating vital information plays a fundamental role in carrying out this integrated approach. As an organization who partners with federal, state and local government, we are required to collect anonymous demographic information on all individuals who participate in any of our programs and or activities. The purpose of collecting anonymous data serves various purposes such as, but not limited to, (1) ensuring our programs are delivered in a nondiscriminatory way, (2) solely for planning purposes to deliver programs like the one your invested in today, (3) isolates the amount of funding we acquire to deliver programs to individuals within our communities and beyond Maryland State parameters, and (4) to ensure we are serving all individuals equitably and reaching populations which are underserved, underrepresented, and socially disadvantage. As this form is voluntary, we hope you take a moment to identify who you are and help us measure the effectiveness of our inclusive outreach efforts.
