NURTURING LAND AND OURSELVES.
WiWiC is a state-wide collaborative effort led by the Michael Fields Agricultural Institute in partnership with Renewing the Countryside, Marbleseed, and the Wisconsin Farmers Union. A five-year multi-faceted project funded by the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), WiWiC brings together Wisconsin women landowners to learn about conservation practices, resources, and funding opportunities.
Who We Are
We're women on a conservation journey: farmers, landowners and conservation professionals who share a passion for taking good care of soil, water, and wildlife. We are also biologists, researchers, urban gardeners, farm market managers, prairie enthusiasts, hunters, fishers, retirees and young women with dreams of land ownership. By sharing stories, knowledge and experience, we're working together for a brighter future.
What We Do
WiWiC hosts learning circles, field days, webinars, happy hours and other networking events. We host a conservation-themed women-only Listserv, facilitate the WiWiC Conservation Educator Network and much more. Our mission is to empower, educate, and inspire women for the sake of the land and the wellness created through stewardship. We are building Regional Networks in the colored areas of the map, but events are open to all. See the Team page to connect with a Region. We are here to nurture land and ourselves. Join us!
