Hello!

As we enter into the late fall, and early winter months. I hope there is time for you to savor the fruits of your labor. We are working hard to bring you some wonderful content for you to listen to during farm chores or read with your feet up and a cup of tea in hand.

We're excited about all of the year's storytelling projects, they are really starting to bear fruit. Building this platform to elevate women's voices in the agricultural conversation has been incredibly rewarding. From images, to essays, to the airwaves. We are working to mindfully expand the platforms. We hope you'll join us and tell your story. Let us know if we can help.

Podcast Tees!
We sold out of our first run! Thank you. We have decided to do a second run and again collaborated with the wonderful Public Market to create a tee that was grown-and-made in the US, supports women-owned and minority-owned businesses -- and us! Public Market is donating a percentage of proceeds to benefit the podcast and help us to keep it ad-free!!

Send us a picture of you sporting your tee - we'd love to see you wearing your FFP Pride!
