The learning circles method of conservation outreach to women farmland owners and the associated activities used were developed by Women, Food and Agriculture Network for its Women Caring for the Land program.

“After the learning circle I was invited to spend a few hours out on a farm owned by two of the women. Prior to the meeting, they didn't know NRCS existed and now they are thinking about CRP and EQIP. Both ladies are very excited about soil health and making improvements on their farm.” Ashley Linville, District Conservationist

"I want to thank you for your impetus in helping Rush- Shelby FSA offer the Women4theLand Learning Circle that I so enjoyed on August 30. Your encouragement helped the staff create a terrific day that I hope will continue. We are planning another gathering in November. It inspired me with my own sustainable efforts simply to be in a gathering of other women who also are doing and wanting to do more to care for the land. Thank you!" Dena V., Rush County Farmer
