The 2023 CONNECT Committee
Everything we do is for agriculture, and it is all thanks to the amazing group who volunteer their time and effort to plan initiatives and events across the province! We asked each of our team members why they were proud to be a Woman in Ag - take some time and get to know a little more about each one of us!
