Being a female farmer has taught me......

*You can do anything you set your mind to!
*Ask for help when you need it.
*If you fail, try again and again and again. And make sure you share those failures!
*Women muscles are just as strong as men muscles.
*Cussing helps in ALL circumstances.
*Make sure you embrace the small victories.
*Coffee
*There IS crying in farming. Let those tears flow.
*The old way works most often than not, so keep teaching them.
*Journal, photograph & document your life, when you’re gone, your legacy is all that remains.
* Uneducated comments will always be answered compassionately, the first time.
*Tomorrow is always a new day! But it’s not always guaranteed.
* You are never too old or too young to accomplish something new.

Women make up 36% of the total number of U.S. farm operators; 56% of all farms have at least one female decision-maker. Previously, Arizona had the highest proportion of women farmers, with 45% of all farmers in the state, until this year. Now Alaska holds that honor with 50% of women farming!

Another truth.

Dealing with animals for food is a very hard and trying industry. You can plan and do everything right and it can still go so wrong.
That calf that you raised, nurtured and gave everything to can die at any moment and never give you anything back in return.
The cow you milk can get sick and never make milk again. That calf you raise to breeding age can never breed and is nothing more the some beef in the freezer. But you have such high hopes. She has such potential to make lots of milk but is a poor milker.
That chick that you ordered died between hatch and 20 weeks old. Before you get that egg. Did the chicken get just stressed enough where she will not lay an egg agin until her next season.
There’s so many what if and what went wrong when dealing with live animals you just never know what’s going to happen.
So know it’s easy to go to the store/farm and buy it but stop and think what the farmer had to do to get it there.
So instead of complaining about how the farmers do things to put food on your table just be thankful that you didn’t have to do it.
