About the Event




What To Expect:

  • To network with other local women around shared dreams, challenges, and experiences with conservation

  • To learn about the WiWiC project and opportunities that exist for women landowners to implement conservation practices

  • To gather at a diversified farm, with some uneven ground, limited shade, and uncertain weather - dress accordingly


Event Details:

  • Event is free to attend but registration is required and space is limited.

  • Women, all who identify as such, are welcome to attend – from  landowners to farmers to conservationist enthusiasts –  whatever your background, from beginners to experts! 

  • Our WiWiC events follow a Learning Circle model, with ample time and a safe space for story sharing, networking and collaborative learning. We all have something to both share and learn together.

  • Dress for the weather. Please bring a chair and your water bottle to refill.

  • WiWiC is a family-friendly space and you are welcome to bring your children. 

  • Ticks are increasinly a concern in Wisconsin. Please dress in long pants. Thanks to a generous donation from Dr. Sarah Slaby, we will have Dr. Sarah's Essentials herbal bug spray to help keep those critters at bay, but please dress in long pants and wear a hat (or plan to buy a WiWiC bandana at the event).


Photos are taken at WiWiC events to help amplify the work being done by Wisconsin's women land stewards, and to help promote future events. Your registration grants consent for your photo to be taken and used for these purposes. 


You are automatically subscribed to "The Buzz" monthly WiWiC e-newsletter when you register for an event. You can unsubscribe at any time by using a button at the bottom of the newsletter.
