Outstanding Woman in Agriculture Award

The Pennsylvania Farm Bureau Women’s Leadership Committee is seeking women who – through hard work, creativity and perseverance – has positively contributed to agriculture. The nominees for this award must be Farm Bureau Members.

The type of farming operation, contributions to agriculture, committees or organizations will be considered. A narrative explaining why nominees should be considered is required.

One winner will be chosen per district. Those 16 entries will then be forwarded to the state Women’s Leadership Committee for a final judging and selection. The winner will be announced at the PFB Annual Meeting in November. Entry deadline to your county WLC is typically July 1st.
