The conference will be held on February 20, 2014 at Dover Downs Hotel and Casino in Dover, Delaware. The conference goals are to offer women who are involved with agriculture the opportunity to come together to learn about current issues and topics so they can make informed decisions concerning their agribusinesses and family lives. Sessions will cover marketing, food preservation, business planning and much more.

New for 2014, a preconference will also be offered. The preconference will take place on February 19, 2014 from 1-5pm. Participants can choose between two track offerings: Agritourism or Health Insurance Literacy.
