The Countdown Is On For AWC East 2024
The countdown is on and preparations are being made for the Advancing Women in Agriculture AWC East 2024 Conference happening in Niagara Falls, Ontario from November 17-19.
Lynda Campbell with TD Bank Agriculture Services has been a long-time conference attendee. She says the conference shines a very bright light on the importance of women in the agriculture sector.
"Working and being in the industry, I see so many women coming back to the farm or on the farm and the role they play and how little we know about their contributions to the operations," says Campbell. "So many of them are sole farmers themselves now and this conference is a great opportunity for women to help women."

She's been a longtime attendee of the Advancing Women in Agriculture Conference and believes it's important to everyone understand just how vital women are to the ag sector. Working and being in the industry, I also see so many women coming back to the farm or on the farm and the role they play and how little we know about their contributions to the operations and how so many of them are actually so farmers themselves now and it's just a great opportunity for women helping women. Campbell says there's always something to learn when you attend the AWC conferences. There's never been a time or a speaker that's come up that you don't have a bit of a takeaway or an aha moment. I find so much personal development, mental health, mental wellness, leadership, strategies, and connecting with other like-minded people. And if you haven't had the chance to take part in one, Campbell strongly encourages you to make the effort to attend. Every year it's different and every year it's it just continues to empower women. It's unbelievable what they'll get out of it. The AWC East Conference takes place in Niagara Falls, Ontario this November.
