Washington DC Advocacy & Leadership Trip

January 27-30, 2025

Join us as a small group of WG Women participants travel to Washington, DC, to advocate for policies shaping the future of agriculture. From Capitol Hill to key meetings with elected officials and agriculture advocates to notable women focused tours, program participants will learn and  advocate for farming in the western United States and ensure we are shaping policies that will benefit farming communities for years to come.

There are a limited number of spaces available, please only register if you are committed to attend ALL events. Any cancellations after Jan 1, 2025, will incur a penalty fee. This fee is necessary to cover the costs of securing meals, transportation within DC, and event space based on guaranteed numbers. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us manage these commitments.
