Mother Nature's Daughters

Discover the inspiring stories of resilience and innovation in "Mother Nature's Daughters" by Paula Vw Dail. Published by McFarland & Co Inc in 2016, this engaging paperback spans 252 pages and highlights the pivotal role women play in American agriculture. With nearly half of all farmland in the United States owned by women—totaling 295,000—these trailblazers are transforming a traditionally male-dominated industry. Through the narratives of eight remarkable women farmers, Dail sheds light on their determination to navigate challenges such as severe weather and unpredictable markets. This book is not just a tribute to these women; it's a call to recognize their vital contributions to a complex food system.
