Ashtech 4-H
Women in Agriculture Day
November 23, 2015


15 out of 70 agriculture students at our school are girls... a small, but mighty, group of ladies!
One of my goals this year is to help these students feel empowered and motivated about their role in agriculture, their communities, Ghana and the world.


 These strong, brilliant and beautiful girls are the future of Ghana.


"Why did you choose agric?"     "Why are women important in agric?"     "What challenges do women face in agric?"
Women play a hugely important role in agriculture... they also face unique challenges in agriculture.


 Gena traveled to Odumase to help me out and she rocked it - thanks, Gena!
