Our mission is to promote, protect and preserve agriculture in San Luis Obispo County through public relations, education, advocacy and leadership. The name was chosen to develop a cross section of members across our great state. In fact, the nucleus of the first chapter was made up of consumers, as well as farmers. Today our membership is as diverse as the industry we repre
sent; bankers, lawyers, accountants, marketing professionals, consumers, farmers and ranchers. Members are actively engaged in public relations, education and legislative advocacy on behalf of agriculture. Our mission is to promote and protect the agricultural industry, to promote and develop the interest of California women involved or interested in agriculture and to promote a strong agriculture industry in San Luis Obispo County.
