Staff members Abbie Spackman and Linda Fetzer partnered with Penn State Extension's farm stress team to host and teach "Communicating with Farmers Under Stress" in an online workshop format. A wide range of individuals with various involvements in agriculture attended the interactive training.
The duo also presented an NTW virtual session, "Table Talk: Assistive Tech for Women in Ag," on a Zoom session set up by the National AgrAbility Project (NAP). Lots of tips, products, and information were shared among attendees. Watch Abbie explain the use of a top-referred product line: Green Heron Tools' "HerShovel" and "HerSpading Fork".
Staff members spent time in April planning and preparing for a mix of hybrid events (in-person and virtual) with AgrAbility PA's key partners and stakeholders. It is a hopeful time to see some returning events and interactions occurring within the health and safety guidelines set because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
