Oregon Women for Agriculture will be hosting their Annual Auction and Dinner on April 15th, 2023 at the Linn County Fair & Expo Center in Albany, Oregon. This year’s theme is “From Farm to Forest- and Everything in Between.” Shareholder Laura Schroeder, firm administrator Scott Borison, and senior paralegal Tara Lomacz are excited to be attending the event.
Founded in 1969, Oregon Women for Agriculture began with the mission to “work together to communicate the story of today’s agriculture.” The organization is passionate about educating the community on the importance of sustainable agriculture to the environment and economy. Their work can be found in their support of programs including Oregon Agriculture in the Classroom and the Summer Agriculture Institute. These programs are meant to help students learn the importance of agriculture in their day-to-day life, like understanding how their food makes it from the farm to the grocery store. OWA is also responsible for the popular crop identification signs that can be found all along Oregon’s roadways. These signs help spread the word on the hundreds of different crops farmers grow all across the state.
The 2023 Oregon Women for Agriculture Annual Auction will help support OWA so that they can continue their work in the Oregon community for years to come! The event will feature a silent auction and dinner, as well as a live auction beginning at 7:15 pm. Visit the event website here for details on ticket cost, reserving a table, and more. We hope to see you there!
