The Land Connection’s “Women Who Farm” series is back

Venture out of C-U this summer and explore some working farms in Illinois, all operated by women. The Land Connection is offering five opportunities to do this through their Women Who Farm series. All destinations are within about an hour and a half from here, and you’ll be able to meet the farmers, tour their farms, do some hands-on activities, and enjoy refreshments, all for just $15. 

This year’s destinations include:

Harvest & Blooms Flower Farm, Rochester, IL

Big Thorn Farm, Georgetown, IL

CHJ Umoja Family Gardens, Carlock, IL

Danenberger Family Vineyards, New Berlin, IL

Cedar Valley Sustainable, Ottawa, IL

You can register and find out more details about the farms here.
