AgrAbility for Pennsylvanians spent time networking with women farmers at an event hosted by the Pennsylvania Women's Agricultural Network. The keynote speaker at the event was Natasha Bowens, author of "The Color of Food: Stories of Race, Resilience and Farming." She spoke about overcoming challenges farmers face through networking and sharing stories. Many other speakers presented information surrounding the theme "women farmers building agricultural resilience through diversity." During the event AgrAbility staff hosted an exhibit table and provided information about AgrAbility services, farming with arthritis, assistive technology, and more.
